CARROT & TAHINI SOUP

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a deep saucepan over a medium-high heat and fry half the chickpeas for 5-8 mins until golden and crisp. Tip into a bowl and toss with sea salt, then leave to cool until ready to serve.
• Add the remaining oil, the onions, garlic, celery, carrots and a pinch of salt to the pan and fry over a medium heat for 8 mins, or until the vegetables have coloured slightly and started to soften.
