About

These are light but packed with flavour and lend themselves to a number of variations. Try using chickpeas, haricot beans or lentils and use whatever spices you like. They would be fine as a starter served with crème fraiche flavoured with grated lemon rind or aïoli or a tomato salsa, or used as a vegetable and/or ballast with a spicy lamb or chicken dish. They do need strong herbs or plenty of spice.
