Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 10 minutes
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a small frying pan and gently fry the cumin for a minute to release the flavour. Add the chilli, chickpeas and tomatoes and stir to coat in the cumin and oil. Cook for a couple of minutes and crush slightly, then add the lime juice. To make the dip, stir the coriander through the yogurt.
- Warm the flatbreads following pack instructions. Divide the chickpea mix between the flatbreads and roll them up. Serve with the yogurt dip.
Make it meaty
For a more hearty dish, add some cooked, shredded chicken to the chickpeas.
Low Gi
Chickpeas, even canned ones, are a good slowly digested carb and so score low on the Gi scale. Flatbread tends to be medium Gi, so adding lots of salad will lower this.
