Wrap yourself around me
It was about time that I stranded in my kitchen again, wasn’t it? Source of inspiration was the food @ Monoprix (where I usually don’t shop), because in a shop you don’t visit often, you tend to see and buy other products than usual. Determined to let my inner veggie have a go at making wraps, I picked up for three or four wraps:
- 2 or 3 spring onions
- 1 package of red or yellow or red and yellow cherry tomato’s
- 1 can of chick peas (these are already prepared, if you wonder)
- green bell pepper (paprika)
- coriander (leaf)
- mâche and roquette (lettuce)
- coriander (grounded seeds)
- cumin (grounded)
- a packet of whole wheat wraps
- olive oil
- salad dressing (if you fancy that)
Dash the onions and cherry tomato’s to little cubes.
Open up the can with chick peas and drain the fluid, cut the green pepper into cubes.
Cut the coriander leaves. Wash the lettuce.
Heat a pot with a table spoon of olive oil on stove. When the oil is hot dump in the green pepper and let it bake for a few moments for the taste, then turn the fire down and add the chick peas and coriander leaves and then add the seasoning (coriander & cumin)… give those bottles a nice shake, you want to be able to taste that you put those herbs in there. Give everything a good stir and put a lid on the pot.
When the peppers are nice and soft, take the pot off the fire and blend the peas and peppers with a blender to a nice smooth mass and let it cool down (you don’t have to let it cool down but I found that it was more tasty when nice and cool in this hot weather).
Put the wraps in the oven (wrapped in aluminium foil) or whatever the package said you should do (I don’t have a microwave oven so I heated my oven).
Cover half of the wrap with a nice layer of pea mash, tomatos and onions, mâche and roquette and finish with some salad dressing and roll up your wrap.
If you’re using warm pea mash, you could consider adding a bit of grated cheddar over it… but that’s just a thought.
Bon appetit :-)
