How To MakeDiet Type: Plant-based
Shopping List
- 1 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 small scallions, chopped (white and light green parts only)
- 1/4 cup finely diced celery or mango (optional)
- 3 tablespoons slivered almonds
- 3 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise (Note 1)
- 2 tablespoons raisins
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Toast the slivered almonds in a dry frying pan until lightly golden and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Shake the pan often to avoid burning. Set aside.
- Step 2: For a creamier chickpea salad, remove the filmy skins from the chickpeas and discard. They should slip right off when squeezed with your fingers.
- Step 3: Mash the chickpeas in a bowl with a fork until chunky to your liking. Add the scallions, toasted nuts, mayonnaise, raisins, curry powder, olive oil, and lemon juice and stir until creamy. Fold in the optional celery or mango and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Note 1: Not a fan of mayo? Substitute coconut yogurt or runny tahini instead.
