Serve up this moreish Moroccan-style vegan platter for supper. Did you know that nasunin, which is responsible for the purple colour in aubergine, helps protect brain cells?
View original recipe on bbcgoodfood.comFor 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.
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.
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.
