- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1½ tablespoons dukkah
- ½ tomato
- ½ Lebanese cucumbe
- ½ avocado
- ¼ cup natural yoghurt
- Juice of ½ lemon
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1½ tablespoons picked mint leaves
SPICED CHICKEN PATTIES
- ¼ red onion
- Zest and juice of ½ lemon
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1½ teaspoons chicken spice mix
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 300g chicken mince
- 4 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
TO SERVE

Steps
-
oven to 220°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Preheat BBQ hot plate to high (if using).
-
Toss cauliflower, chickpeas and dukkah with a drizzle of olive oil on prepared tray. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 1520 minutes, until golden brown. Turn once during cooking.
-
While cauliflower cooks, dice tomato 1cm. Using a vegetable peeler, peel cucumber into long, thin ribbons, stopping when you reach the core (discard core and seeds). Set both aside.
-
Finely dice onion and add to a medium bowl, along with all remaining spiced chicken patty. Mix well to combine. Using a tablespoon measure and clean hands, shape chicken patty mixture into balls, then press down to form 1cm-thick patties.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium heat. Cook patties for 2-3 minutes, turning regularly, until golden and cooked through. Transfer patties to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
-
While patties cook, combine avocado, yoghurt, lemon juice and water in a small bowl and mash until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside. Remove cooked cauliflower from oven and toss through tomato, cucumber, mint and 2-3 tablespoons of avocado mixture. Season to taste.
-
place a dollop of eggplant dip onto each plate. Divide dukkah roasted cauliflower and spiced chicken patties between plates. Serve any excess avocado mixture on the side.
