Cilantro and Citronella

Protein-packed chickpeas, juicy cherry tomatoes and fresh cilantro combine on a bed of crispy baby spinach leaves to make a simple and healthy taco filling.

Ingredients

One 560 gram (20 oz) jar of chickpeas

250 grams (9 oz) cherry tomatoes, quartered

1/3 cup (packed) chopped fresh cilantro

Half a red onion, finely diced

3 tablespoons aquafaba

1 clove of garlic

1/2 cup neutral-tasting oil

2 teaspoons smoked paprika or 1 chipotle pepper in adobo if you like spicy

2 teaspoons lime juice

1 1/4 teaspoons cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt

Four 20 cm (8 inch) tortillas

75 grams (2.5 oz) baby spinach

Method

Drain the chickpeas and reserve the liquid in a small bowl, this is your aquafaba. Place the chickpeas in a large bowl and mash them a little with your hands. This will keep them from rolling out of your tacos. Mix in the cherry tomatoes, cilantro and red onion.

In a tall container place 3 tablespoons of the reserved aquafaba and garlic. Using an immersion blender running the whole time, pour in the oil in a steady stream. Mix in the paprika or chipotle, cumin, lime juice and salt. It may seem overly salty, but we didn’t put any salt in the chickpea mixture so it balances out in the tacos.

Spoon about half of the smoky mayo into the chickpea mixture and mix well. Reserve the other half to serve in a small bowl for smearing on the tacos.

Place a small handful of baby spinach leaves on each tortilla, top with the chickpea mixture and roll up your tacos. Serve with remaining smoky mayo on the side.
