Ingredients
 

  • 1 x 400g can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 tablespoons gluten-free Vegan Mayonnaise or plain vegan yoghurt
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free mango chutney
  • 1 teaspoon mild gluten-free curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon gluten-free garlic granules a pinch of sea salt
  • 25 g raisins
  • 25 g flaked almonds
  • a small handful of coriander leaves, roughly torn
  • 2 heads of little gem lettuce, leaves separated and washed, to serve

Instructions
 

  • Put the chickpeas, mayonnaise or yoghurt, chutney, curry powder, vinegar, garlic granules and salt into a large mixing bowl and, using a potato masher, roughly mash and mix together until half the chickpeas are crushed and the rest are left whole, for a chunky texture. Stir in the raisins, almonds and coriander leaves.
  • Spoon the salad into lettuce leaves to serve them in little ‘cups’. Alternatively, shred the lettuce and mix it into the salad and serve in a bowl.
