Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220C / fan 200C / gas mark 7. Heat a medium saucepan on medium heat. Once hot, add the almonds and toast for 2-3 mins, until golden brown. Remove and set aside. Add the quinoa to the saucepan and cover with hot water. Boil for 14-15 mins, until cooked, then drain. Return the drained quinoa to the pan, then set aside.
- Make the harissa chickpeas; drain and rinse the chickpeas. Add the chickpeas to a medium baking dish and toss with half the harissa and 1 tbsp oil. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper. Bake for 10 mins, until golden and crispy.
- Dice the courgettes and peppers into 2cm cubes. Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the courgettes and peppers and cook for 4-6 mins, until golden brown. Add half the dukkah and remaining harissa paste, then cook for a further 1-2 mins. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.
- Make the quinoa salad; pick the mint from the stalks and roughly chop with the dill. Zest the lemon and cut into 6 wedges. Add the mint, dill, zest and half the almonds to the cooked quinoa and mix well. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.
- Make the labneh; in a bowl, mix the baba ganoush, tahini, juice from 2 lemon wedges and 2-3 tbsp water. Season to taste. Stir until smooth.
- Serve the labneh topped with the quinoa salad, courgettes, peppers and harissa chickpeas. Garnish with the remaining almonds, dukkah and lemon wedges.
