- 210g can chickpeas
- 2 tbsp tomato purée
- 2 tsp vegetable bouillon powder

Method
- STEP 1
Heat the oil in a deep, non-stick saucepan. Add the onion, carrots and celery, and cook over a high heat, stirring every now and then, until starting to soften. Stir in the lamb and spices, then cook for 5-7 mins to brown the meat.
- STEP 2
Tip in the cans of lentils and chickpeas, along with their liquid, then stir in the tomato purée and bouillon with 1 litre of hot water from the kettle. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 30 mins until the veg is tender. Stir through the chopped parsley, then scatter over a few whole leaves to serve.
