Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a large roasting pan with baking paper. Place chickpeas and garlic in the pan. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with the cumin, and paprika. Toss to coat. Season. Bake the chickpea mixture, tossing occasionally, for 15-20 mins or until chickpeas are crisp.
Step 2
Meanwhile, place the apple in a small bowl. Add the lemon juice and orange juice and toss to combine. Drain, reserving the combined juice.
Step 3
Combine the extra virgin olive oil, extra garlic, turmeric and 1 1/2 tbs of the reserved liquid in a screw-top jar. Season and shake until well combined.
Step 4
Place the chickpea mixture, apple, carrot, tomato, onion, mint and coriander in a large bowl. Sprinkle with half the almond. Drizzle with the dressing and toss to combine. Transfer to a large serving platter. Sprinkle with the lemon zest, orange zest and remaining almond. Serve immediately.
