    Title: Creamy Romesco Chickpeas
    Categories: Vegetarian
    Yield: 4 Servings

    4 Jarred red bell peppers
    1 Lemon;
    - juice of, more to serve
    2 tb Tomato paste
    5 1/2 oz Silken tofu (150 g)
    3 tb Ground almonds
    2 ts Smoked paprika
    4 cl Garlic
    5 tb Olive oil;
    - more for the chickpeas
    28 oz Chickpeas (800 g) (2 cans)
    7 oz Tenderstem broccoli (200 g)

    Preparation time: 6 minutes
    Cooking time: 10 minutes

    Try these creamy romesco chickpeas for a quick plant-based meal with
    chickpeas, broccoli, and a smooth pepper-based sauce, ready in under
    20 minutes.

    Right, big fat favour, grab that food processor. Drain the peppers
    from their jar and add them to the processor, along with the lemon
    juice, tomato paste, silken tofu, ground almonds, smoked paprika,
    garlic and olive oil. Basically, not the chickpeas or the broccoli.
    Blitz until smooth, and season.

    Next, drain your chickpeas and fry them in a large frying pan over a
    medium heat with a little drizzle of oil. Chop the broccoli into nice
    small bits and, once they start to soften a little, throw the
    broccoli in and season it with salt & pepper. Let those fry up and
    soften.

    Once everything is, well, cooked, pour that sauce lovingly into the
    frying pan and mix everything together. Add some boiling water (100
    ml/scant 1/2 cup), if it's too pasty. Once bubbling and looking
    lusciously smooth and thick, you're done.

    Add to airtight containers or serving bowls, with rocket and cooked
    brown rice. You might want to squeeze in some extra lemon.
