If not eating straight away I’d recommend keeping the dressing separate until just before eating!

Kebab Salad
Ingredients
for the tofu and chickpeas
- 225g extra firm smoked tofu, drained
- 1 400g can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp ground garlic
- 1 tsp ground onion
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp flaky salt
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
for the pickled red onion and cabbage
- 50g red cabbage, finely sliced
- 1 small red onion, peeled and finely sliced
- 100ml apple cider vinegar/wine vinegar
for the salad
- 50g romaine lettuce, shredded
- 75g cucumber, finely diced
- 75g tomatoes, finely chopped
- 10g parsley, finely chopped
- 1-2 tbsp chilli sauce (I used sriracha)
- 4 pickled green chillies, finely chopped
for the dressing
- 75g greek yoghurt
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar/wine vinegar
- Pinch of salt
- About 1 tbsp of water
Method
- Preheat your oven to 220c/200c fan.
- Mix 1 tbsp of olive oil, the spices and salt in a small bowl.
- Using a peeler, shave the tofu into thin slices. After a while it becomes a bit difficult to continue shaving the tofu, so instead, crumble the remaining tofu into small pieces. Place in a large bowl then add the spice mix and stir well.
- Place the tofu and chickpeas on a large shallow baking tray. Pour a bit of olive oil on the chickpeas and a sprinkle of salt. Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden.
- For the pickled onion and red cabbage, in a small bowl or jar, mix together the red onion and vinegar.
- For the dressing, mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl or jar.
- In a large bowl, add the chopped lettuce, tofu, chickpeas, cucumber, tomatoes, pickled onion and cabbage. Then drizzle over the dressing. And that’s it!
