Katy Beskow’s Coronation chickpea recipe

Looking for a little something special for your coronation celebrations? You’re in the right place. Katy Beskow, author of “Easy Speedy Vegan” and a friend of Thought, has shared with us her super-tasty Coronation chickpea recipe. Deliciousness guaranteed.

Recipe

Delicately spiced, creamy and fruity, these chickpeas are a modern twist on the classic. Use to fill a baguette, or to load into a baked potato. How golden the overall colour will be depends on the quantity of turmeric in the curry powder, as all brands vary – add a pinch of ground turmeric for added vibrancy of colour, if desired.

SERVES 2 GENEROUSLY

Ingredients 

400g (14oz) canned chickpeas

drained and rinsed

2 tbsp vegan mayonnaise

2 tsp mango chutney

1 tsp mild curry powder

pinch of sea salt

and black pepper

Method

Tip the chickpeas into a large bowl and roughly mash some of them with the back of a fork.

Spoon in the vegan mayonnaise, mango chutney and curry powder and stir to combine until the mashed chickpeas are coated.
