This is one of those meals you can leave to simmer in the oven while getting on with other things, said Yotam Ottolenghi. The Queen Black Chickpeas absorb the warmth of baharat as they cook, with olives adding a briny saltiness and orange slices melting into the sauce.
Ingredients:
- 1 jar Bold Bean Co Queen Black Chickpeas, drained but with bean stock reserved
- 250g cherry tomatoes
- 12 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
- 1⁄2 an orange (halved lengthways); halved lengthways again and thinly sliced
- 50g green olives (we like Nocellara)
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp baharat
- 1⁄4 tsp turmeric
- 120ml olive oil
- 5g tarragon leaves
- Greek yoghurt, to serve
- salt
