Ingredients

  • 140g chickpeas, drained
  • 300g baking potato
  • 60g mixed salad
  • 60g spring onion
  • 40g 0% Greek yoghurt

Equipment

  • microwave

  • fork
  • knife
  • chopping board
  • bowl
  • spoon
  • oven gloves
  • kitchen scales

Method

  1. Scrub and prick the potato all over. Use a microwave-safe plate; at800 W allow about8–12 minutes for one250–300 g potato, turning halfway, then1-minute bursts until completely soft. Stand2 minutes. Appliance and potato size govern.
  2. Use ready-cooked canned or pouched chickpeas, drained, drained before weighing. Rinse canned pulses if appropriate. Dry pulses cannot be substituted directly.
  3. Wash the salad vegetables; finely slice spring onion. Mix any measured yoghurt, mayonnaise, mustard, herbs and oil into the cold filling or dressing. Heat baked beans or a cooking sauce separately according to its packet; do not heat lettuce or cucumber.
  4. Split and fluff the potato. Add the filling and dressing; serve every listed vegetable alongside. Eat immediately. An oven-only jacket needs60–90 minutes plus preheating and is not the25-minute option.
