  • 2 tbsp fresh coriander
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 2 sheets pre-rolled puff pastry

Instructions

    1. Finely dice the onion. Melt the butter in a large frypan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 4-5 minutes until very soft and translucent.
    2. Finely grate or crush the garlic and finely grate the ginger. Add these to the onion and cook for a further minute.

    7. Stir the chickpeas through the vegetable mixture until well combined and season with salt and pepper to taste.
    8. Set the mixture aside to cool for 15-20 minutes.
