Ingredients

380g carton chickpeas
zest and juice 0.5 lemon (use the other 1/2 to squeeze over the apple to stop it browning, if you like)

2 tbsp roasted unsalted peanuts
1 tsp rapeseed oil
2 crisp red apples , cored and cut into slices
2 carrots , cut into sticks
4 celery sticks, cut into batons lengthways

Steps:

Drain the chickpeas, reserving the liquid. Tip three-quarters of the chickpeas into a food processor and add the lemon zest and juice, tahini, paprika, peanuts and oil with 3 tbsp chickpea liquid. Blitz in a food processor until smooth, then stir in the reserved chickpeas. Serve with the fruit and veg sticks.
