Ingredients 

  • 2 cans (14 oz / 400 g) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • ¼ cup green onions, sliced
  • ¼ cup gherkins, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup raisins
  • ¼ cup almond flakes
  • ½ cup light mayo
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed or grated
  • ½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh coriander, chopped, to garnish

Instructions

  • Place the drained and rinsed chickpeas in a large bowl and use a hand blender or potato masher to blend them partially. Do it to break down the chickpeas without turning them to mush — you still want some texture there.
