1tsp cayenne pepper

1 x 400g tin of chopped tomatoes

For the dukkah

1tsp za’atar
2tsp sesame seeds or nigella seeds
2tsp sunflower seeds
1 lemon

Directions

For the Stew

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over a medium heat. Add the onions and peppers and cook for 7-8 minutes until softened, stirring often. Then, add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add the tomato puree, spices and a splash of water and stir to create a paste. Fry off for 2-3 minutes. Pour in the chickpeas with half of their liquid and toss well to coat.
Fill the empty chickpea jar halfway with water and give it a shake. Pour the chopped tomatoes into the pan followed by the water from the jar and stir to combine. Bubble away for 4-5 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
Add a squeeze of half a lemon juice and season to taste.
