Method

To Make the Fritters

  1. Place the chickpeas in a large bowl and lightly mash with a fork. Add the grated sweet potato, chives, feta, tikka masala spice blend, eggs, flour, baking powder and pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
  2. Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a thin layer of olive oil. Spoon tablespoons of the mixture into the pan and cook for 4 minutes, or until golden and holding together.
  3. Carefully flip each fritter and cook for a further 3 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
  4. Transfer cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towel and repeat until all the mixture is used. Set aside.

To Make Soft-Boiled Eggs

  1. Prepare an ice bath and set aside.
  2. Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Carefully add the eggs and cook for 7 minutes.
  3. Remove the eggs and place them in the ice bath until cool enough to handle. Peel and cut in half.

To Serve

  1. Arrange the fritters on plates with garden salad, top with soft-boiled eggs and finish with freshly ground pepper.
