Ingredients

  • 4 large baking potatoes

For the tahini chickpeas

  • 1.5 tbsp tahini
  • 2 tbsp tamari
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 tbsp curry powde
  • 1/2 tsp pink Himalayan salt
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric

For the sautéd mushrooms

  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1.5 cups button mushrooms, chopped
  • 1/4 cup sweetcorn, tinned or fresh
  • 1/2 tsp pink Himalayan salt, or to taste

For the avocado sauce

  • 2 large avocados, mashed
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1/4 cup soy yoghurt, unsweetened

Equipment

  • Conventional oven
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Parchment paper
  • Baking tray
  • Non-stick frying pan

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C/400 F.
  • Add the tahini, tamari and lemon juice to a large mixing bowl. Whisk together, then add the chickpeas, curry powder, pink Himalayan salt and turmeric. Stir together really well.
  • Transfer the chickpeas to a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
  • TO BAKE THE POTATOES: Spread the potatoes out evenly on the same baking tray as the chickpeas and piece each one 3 times with a fork. Bake in the preheated oven for between 1 hour and 1 hour 20 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes, until fully cooked through, removing the chickpeas after 40 minutes.
  • TO MICROWAVE THE POTATOES: Pierce each potato 3 times with a fork and place them on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on 80% power for 8 minutes, flip, and repeat. Check to ensure that they are fork-tender before stuffing and serving.
  • Meanwhile, add the onion, mushrooms, corn and pink Himalayan salt to a non-stick frying pan and sauté for 4-5 minutes, until the mushrooms soften.
  • Prepare the avocado sauce by stirring together the mashed avocado, nutritional yeast and soy yoghurt.
  • When the potatoes are ready, load them up with the avocado sauce, roasted chickpeas, and mushroom sauté. Serve immediately, or store in the fridge in an air-tight container for 3-4 days.
