Ripened goat cheese log 150g, Made In Belgium

Soignon ripened goat log 150g

  • 600 g canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tsp fennel seeds
  • 6 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 lemons, juice and zest
  • 8 slices rustic bread

  1. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat and cook the chickpeas with the fennel seeds and a pinch of salt until lightly crispy.

  4. Heat the butter in a pan over medium-low heat and cook the sandwiches on both sides until golden brown and crispy. Keep them moving in the pan and add extra butter if needed.

  5. Mix the red onion with the remaining lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper and the remaining harissa.

  6. Cut the sandwiches in half and serve with some marinated red onion, optionally extra chickpeas and crumbled goat cheese.
