Ingredients

  • 200g chickpeas
  • 150g brown rice
  • 80g carrots
  • 80g cucumber
  • 15g miso paste
  • 5g ginger
  • 5g honey
  • 3g sesame oil
  • 5g sesame seeds

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the carrot and cucumber, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Simmer the brown rice in plenty of water for 25 minutes until tender, then drain.

  3. 3

    Pat the chickpeas dry and roast at 200°C for 20 minutes until crisp, tossing halfway.

  4. 4

    Whisk the miso, grated ginger, honey and sesame oil with a tablespoon of warm water. Brush over the protein and drizzle the rest over the bowl.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the carrot and cucumber for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: brown rice first, then the veg and chickpea, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the sesame seeds.
