Steps

  1. 1

    Heat a frying pan or skillet until hot and add the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, garlic and cinnamon stick just for a couple of minutes to gently colour.
    Transfer them to a coffee or spice grinder. Give it a couple of blitz’s.

  2. 2

    Chop up three figs and place them in a small bowl with the ouzo for a few minutes just to let the ouzo soak into the figs.
    Add the oil to the frying pan until it gets hot then add the spices from the grinder. Give it a quick stir then add the oregano & dill.
    Another good mix and add the tomato purée & brown sugar along with the juice of two lemons (zest put to one side for later)

  3. 3

    Now add the chopped tinned tomatoes and figs with Ouzo marinade.
    Bring to the boil and reduce slightly.
    Now add the vegetable stock & chickpeas, bring back to the boil and leave to simmer until the sauce has thickened.
