1

Slice the bread into quarters.

2

In a deep pan, heat the oil to 180°C. If you don’t have a thermometer, test the oil by dropping a small piece of bread in, if it sizzles and turns golden quickly, it’s ready.

3

Working in batches, fry the bread for approx. 2 minutes on either side until evenly golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels. Set aside to cool.

4

Mince the garlic and juice the lemon. In a bowl, place the garlic, lemon juice, yoghurt, tahini, cumin and salt. Whisk together until smooth. Adjust the seasoning, if needed. Remove from the heat immediately.

5

Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Roughly chop the parsley and mint. Arrange the chickpeas in a serving dish, top with the fried bread triangles. Drizzle over the yoghurt dressing. Top with the toasted pine nuts, pomegranate seeds and herbs

6

Serve immediately for the best texture.
