This is a go-to for barbecues or if people are coming around. It's so simple to throw together, and the ratios can be changed according to your taste or what's on hand. As well as going with many things, these tahini-yoqurt coated chickpeas are just so satisfying.
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
In a mixing bowl, combine the tahini, yogurt and olive oil. Gently stir with a whisk until well combined, but don't beat too hard, as the tahini can freeze up. Add a few tablespoons of cold water to loosen; you want the sauce to coat the back of a spoon. Stir in the lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Check the lemon and salt levels and adjust to your taste.
Add the chickpeas to the bowl, followed by the red onion, chilli, and half the sumac. Add the coriander stalks and most of the leaves, then give everything a good stir and check the seasoning.
Spoon into a serving bowl or platter. Garnish with the remaining coriander leaves and sumac. A drizzle of oil is also welcome. Serve with warmed flatbreads, with the molasses alongside as a final garnish.
