Ingredients

  • Chickpeas  -  400g
  • Olive Oil  -  1 tblsp
  • Paprika  -  pinch
  • Tomatoes  -  2 small cut chunks
  • Red Onions  -  1 finely sliced
  • Red Wine Vinegar  -  2 tsp
  • Avocado  -  1
  • Lime  -  Juice of 1
  • Lime  -  Chopped
  • Sour Cream  -  100g
  • Harissa Spice  -  2 tsp
  • Corn Tortillas  -  4
  • Coriander  -  to serve

Instructions

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a baking tray with foil. Drain the chickpeas, pat dry and tip onto the prepared baking tray. Add the oil and paprika, toss to coat, then roast for 20-25 mins until browned and crisp, shaking halfway through cooking.

Meanwhile, put the tomatoes and onion in a small bowl with the vinegar and set aside to pickle. Put the avocado in another bowl and mash with a fork, leaving some larger chunks. Stir in the lime juice and season well. Mix the soured cream with the harissa and set aside until ready to serve.

Heat a griddle pan until nearly smoking. Add the tortillas , one at a time, charring each side until hot with griddle lines.

Put everything on the table and build the fajitas : spread a little of the harissa cream over the tortilla, top with roasted chickpeas, guacamole, pickled salsa and coriander, if you like. Serve with the lime wedges for squeezing over.
