Description

Makes about 4 wraps

  • ✓ 2 cups of cooked chickpeas (save a half cup of aquafaba for later use)
  • ✓ 1 medium sized onion (very thinly sliced, I used red onions)
  • ✓ 1 red pepper finely sliced (roughly 1⁄2 cup)
  • ✓ 1⁄4 cup of finely chopped parsley
  • ✓ 1 cup finely sliced tomato
  • ✓ 1⁄2 lemon
  • ✓ Fresh mint leaves ( about 3-4 per wrap)
  • ✓ Sumac powder to sprinkle (a few teaspoons)
  • ✓ Chili flakes (a few teaspoons)
  • ✓ Cumin (a few teaspoons)
  • ✓ Salt & pepper (to taste)
  1. Heat a pan and add 2 teaspoons of chili flakes, 1 teaspoon red pepper, 1 teaspoon cumin and dry toast (or use a teaspoon of oil) for a minute or so, taking care not to burn the spices.
  2. Once you smell the aroma of the toasting spices add the chickpeas and stir-fry for a few minutes. Use a little of the aquafaba to moisten the mix so the spices stick on to the chickpeas. You may smoosh the chickpeas a little if you want.
  3. Once the chickpeas are nicely coated with the spices and a little roasted, turn off the heat and set them aside.
  4. Mix the sliced onion, pepper and parsley, add a couple of pinches of sumac and mix again.
  5. To serve: Use a wrap or lavash bread, spread the chickpea in the center. Sprinkle the top with the chopped onion mix, top with a few slices of tomatoes, add a few fresh mint leaves, a pinch of cumin, and chili flakes, squeeze some lemon. Add salt and pepper to taste. This is also good to serve over rice, bulgur or your favorite other grain.

ENJOY!
