Step 1

tart by draining your chickpeas and drying them, as much as you can, you will find some of the skins come off, juts remove them and pop them in the compost. The drier the chickpeas are, the crisper they will become.

Step 2

Once your chickpeas are dry, add them into a mixing bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and your spices. Toss them well to ensure that all the chickpeas are evenly coated. Then add them directly into your air fryer, leaving the crisper plate in. Set your air fryer to 180c and cook for 15 to 18 minutes. Shake the basket regularly throughout the cook to be sure that the chickpeas cook evenly.

Step 3

While your chickpeas are cooking you can prepare your salad vegetables. Dice your cucumber, then peel and thinly slice your onions. Grate your apple and squeeze a teaspoon of lemon on top and stir through, this will stop your apple from turning brown.

Step 4

When there is a couple of minutes left to cook, open the air fryer and pop your pittas on top of the chickpeas to warm through. Once finished remove your pittas and slice through, all ready for dipping.
