Chickpea Shawarma Burritos

1. Roast the Chickpeas

Preheat oven to 200°C / 400°F.

Toss chickpeas with olive oil, garlic, onion, cumin, paprika, coriander, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Spread on a baking sheet and roast 20–25 minutes until golden and slightly crisp.
💡 Quick alternative: sauté in a pan for 8–10 minutes.

2. Make the Garlic Sauce

Mix yogurt, grated garlic, lemon juice, tahini, and salt in a small bowl.

Chill in the fridge for deeper flavor.

Heat tortillas in a dry pan or wrap in foil and warm in the oven.

Keep them soft and flexible for easy rolling.

Add a base of shredded lettuce or cabbage.

Top with roasted chickpeas, diced tomatoes, cucumber, pickled onions, and fresh herbs.

Drizzle generously with garlic sauce.

Roll up tightly, tucking in the sides to form a burrito.
