Coronation chickpea toast or sandwich
Coronation chickpeas are a classic recipe gone-vegetarian. A delicious combination of tender chickpeas and a creamy, tangy and mildly spiced dressing. The chickpeas are coated in a luscious mixture of creme fraiche, turmeric, curry powder and a hint of sweetness from mango chutney. The addition of chopped spring onion adds a burst of freshness and texture. Coronation Chickpeas can be enjoyed as a filling for wraps and sandwiches or simply on toast.
