Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Heat the oven to 200°C. Peel and dice the potato into 1 cm pieces, toss with 1 teaspoon olive oil and roast for 20–25 minutes until tender. Mash lightly.

  2. Step 2

    Use canned lentils, weighed after draining and rinsing. Wash and finely shred the chicory; finely dice the cucumber and chop the thyme.

  3. Step 3

    Stir the Dijon mustard with the remaining measured olive oil. Fold into the potato with the lentils, chicory, cucumber and thyme to make a finely textured topping.

  4. Step 4

    Split the pita and cut into small triangles. Bake at 200°C for 4–6 minutes until crisp. Spoon on the topping immediately before serving in twelve tasting portions.
