Chickpea fritters with herb and garlic yoghurt
MAKES 12 // PREP TIME 15 MINS // COOK 10 MINS
The Greeks love mezedes - meaning small dishes served either hot or cold. These fritters are best shared with a glass of ouzo.
1 For herb and garlic yoghurt, place ingredients in a small bowl, season to taste and stir to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
2 Place half chickpeas, parsley, spices and onion in a food processor and process until chopped. Place mixture into a bowl with remaining chickpeas, season to taste and stir through flour and egg until well combined.
3 Working with 1 tbsp of mixture at a time, shape into a ball then dust in flour, shaking off excess; place on a lined tray with baking paper. Repeat until mixture is finished.
4 Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. In batches, cook fritters, gently pressing flat, turning occasionally, until golden and crisp on each side (4-5 minutes). Drain on paper towel and season to taste.
5 Arrange on a large platter and serve with herby garlic yoghurt, drizzled with oil and scattered with dill, with lemon wedges on the side.

HEART AND SOUL
Not a vegetable but rather a flower bud that rises on a thistle, the artichoke is a complex delight. Its rewards are hard won; first you must get past the armour of petals and remove the hairy choke. Those who step up are rewarded with sweet and savoury creaminess and the elusive flavour of spring. Many of the recipes here begin with the same Provençal braise. Others call on the nuttiness of artichokes in their raw form. The results make pasta lighter and chicken brighter or can be fried to become a vessel for bold flavours all of which capture the levity of the season.
