BACON FALAFEL BITES WITH HUMMUS
Steps:
- Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
- Put the chickpeas, olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, garlic and 1/3 cup water in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until completely smooth and slightly fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Place in a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Put the bacon slices on a rack set over a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, and then crumble or cut with a knife into bite-size pieces.
- Prepare the falafel mix according to the package directions, adding the bacon to the mixture. Using a leveled tablespoon as a measure, form the mixture into small balls, about 24 total. Place the formed falafel balls onto a baking sheet.
- Fill a large skillet with 1/2 inch canola oil and heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 350 degrees F. In batches, fry the falafel balls until golden brown all over, 1 to 2 minutes total per batch. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked falafel balls to a paper-towel lined plate to absorb any excess oil. Sprinkle liberally with kosher salt.
- To assemble, place 2 to 3 slices of both tomato and cucumber down the center of each lettuce leaf. Top with a falafel ball. Drizzle with some hummus and garnish with a sprinkle of Aleppo pepper.

Steps:
- Add the chickpeas, hot sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and some salt and pepper to a food processor and pulse until combined. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary, then transfer to a serving bowl. Top with the blue cheese, diced celery and celery leaves. Stir to combine just before serving. Serve with pita chips or celery sticks for dipping.
BUTTER BEAN HUMMUS
Steps:
- Process the beans in a food processor until they form a paste. Add the Roasted Garlic and pulse 2 to 3 times to incorporate. Add the tahini, cumin, coriander, paprika and cayenne and blend until a smooth texture starts to develop, 1 to 2 minutes. With the motor running, pour in the olive oil and blend until smooth. The mixture will be thick at this point. Pour in the lemon juice and, if needed, drizzle in water, 1 tablespoon at a time (up to 1/2 cup), until the desired consistency is reached. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour. Serve with pita bread, pita chips or fresh vegetables.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the top off of the garlic head, exposing the cloves but leaving the head intact. Set the head on a large piece of foil, drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap up the foil to make a pouch and bake until the garlic is soft and roasted, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Set aside to cool. Yield: 1 head garlic

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Line a baking sheet with foil. Make a few small cuts around the edges of the pepper halves using a sharp knife, then flatten them as much as you can with your palm. Rub with the veg oil and roast on the lined baking sheet for 10 mins.
- Meanwhile, cut the chicken breasts in half lengthways at an angle so you end up with four thin fillets. Mix the yogurt, turmeric, cumin seeds, ground coriander, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil with some black pepper in a bowl. Add the chicken and turn to coat in the marinade. When the peppers have had 10 mins, turn them over, add the chicken fillets to the sheet, spacing them apart slightly, and spoon any remaining marinade over them. Roast for 20 mins, turning the chicken fillets halfway, until cooked through.
- For the hummus, use a hand blender to blitz together the beans, lemon zest and juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin seeds and coriander with 6 tbsp liquid from the can, some salt and plenty of black pepper. It should be completely smooth.
- When the chicken has been cooking for 10 mins, steam the broccoli for 6 mins until tender. Spoon the hummus over two plates, then top with the roasted peppers and chicken. Scatter with the mint, drizzle with olive oil and serve with the broccoli on the side.
