Method

  • step 1

    Bring a pan of water to the boil and blanch the purple sprouting broccoli for 1 minute, then drain.

  • step 2

    Tip 3/4 of the drained chickpeas into a food processor with half the feta, tahini and lemon juice and pulse to a chunky paste – or just mash with a masher in a bowl, and season.

  • step 3

    Heat the oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7 and lay the flatbreads on a baking sheet. Spread over the mashed chickpea mixture evenly, then halve the broccoli spears lengthways and arrange on top.

  • step 4

    Scatter with the remaining chickpeas and feta, crumbled, the cumin seeds, chilli and seasoning. Drizzle with a little oil and bake for 10-15 minutes until the base is crisp and broccoli charring.

  • step 5

    Scatter the hot flatbreads with the pomegranate seeds and onions, slice and serve.
