Instructions
1 Prep
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan. Chop the zucchinis and eggplants into small chunks. Halve the pomegranate, hold each half over a large bowl, seeds facing down. Hit the skin with a wooden spoon, squeezing to release the seeds. Discard the shell and membrane.
2 Bake
Add the eggplants and zucchinis to a lined baking tray with a drizzle of oil and a generous pinch of salt. Bake for 20 min or until tender.
3 Blitz
Meanwhile, drain the chickpeas over a bowl. Save the liquid from the can. This is called aquafaba. Add the chickpeas, garliconionpowder, bakingpowder, cumin, gramflour, 4 Tbsp of the aquafaba, the eggs and crumbled stockcube to a food processor. Blitz until smooth. Refrigerate.
4 Dressing
Strip and finely chop the mint leaves. In a bowl, combine the naturalyogurt, sumac, honey with the mint. Season with salt and pepper. This is your mintyogurt.
Tip!Save some of the fresh mint for garnish!
5 Fry
Heat a non-stick pan over a medium heat with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil. Once hot, scoop 1 heaped tbsp of the batter into the pan. Gently spread the mixture into a circular shape. Fry the fritters for 3 min on each side or until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Repeat until the mixture runs out.
6 Serve
Top the fritters with the roasted eggplants and zucchinis. Sprinkle with the pomegranate seeds. Crumble the feta over the top and drizzle with the mintdressing. Serve immediately.
