Daniel Lambert's Vegan Baby Gem Chickpea Tacos

Ingredients

For the chickpea filling:
2 baby gem hearts

200g chickpeas

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp garam masala

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp cayenne pepper

Juice of one lime

1 tsp tomato paste
fresh coriander to finish

Low calorie oil spray
salt

For the pickled onions:
1 red onion sliced
100ml water

100ml white wine

100ml vinegar

50g sugar

Star anise

Black pepper corns

Method:

1) For the taco filling, fry the chickpeas and all the spices in a frying pan until soft. Finish with finely chopped coriander and fresh lime juice.

2) For the pickled onions, boil the liquids and the spices together and pour over the onions in a jar, let this sit for 2 hours.

3) Finish off the tacos by filling the baby gem leaves with the chickpea filling, I like to add some siracha sauce to add some heat.
