Method

  • step 1

    For the dip, boil the broad beans for 7 mins, then drain, reserving the cooking water. Tip into a bowl with the cumin, garlic, oil, paprika and 6 tbsp of the reserved water, then blitz using a hand blender until smooth. Spoon into two small bowls.

  • step 2

    Heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat and cook the garlic and aubergines, covered, for 10 mins, stirring occasionally until tender and slightly charred. Add the tomatoes and cumin, and cook for 5-10 mins, then turn off the heat. Add the herbs and lemon juice.

  • step 3

    Serve half on a platter with one bowl of dip, four flatbreads and half the beetroot, along with the pomegranate seeds and mint, if using. You can warm the flatbreads in a frying pan or microwave before serving. Chill the remainder to eat cold the next day. Will keep covered and chilled for a day.

This was very tasty. I cheated on the dip by using hummus which was already in the fridge, but I will try making the dip next time. I also ditched the flatbreads to reduce the carbs, and added some sliced parmesan on the side for flavour and protein.
