Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Wash the tomatoes and cut into thick wedges. Place in a shallow heatproof dish in a covered steamer above the 500 ml boiling water, keeping the dish clear of the water and steam for 4–6 minutes until just softened. Drain excess liquid.

  2. Step 2

    Use canned artichoke hearts in water and canned chickpeas, weighed drained and rinsed. Quarter the artichokes and warm them with the chickpeas and olive oil in a pan over medium heat for 3–4 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Wash and chop the parsley and mint. Fold the tomatoes and parsley with the warm artichokes and chickpeas. Let stand off the heat for 3 minutes, then fold in the yogurt.

  4. Step 4

    Split the pita and toast in a dry pan for 1–2 minutes per side, then cut into wedges. Divide the vegetable mixture among eight plates, scatter with mint and serve with the pita.
