Instructions

  1. 1.

    Clean, wash cauliflower and cut into small florets; place in a bowl. Rinse chickpeas, drain, and add to the cauliflower with spices and chili flakes. Season vegetables with salt and pepper, then mix thoroughly with olive oil. Spread on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast in a preheated oven at 200 °C (180 °C fan‑forced; gas: level 3) for 20 minutes.

    Meanwhile, halve the avocado, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh into a blender. Peel garlic and add to the blender with 100 g yogurt, salt, pepper, and lemon juice; blend until smooth.

    Peel the onion and slice thinly. Rinse coriander, pat dry, and strip leaves from stems.

    Remove vegetables from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. While still hot, toast pita breads in the oven for 5 minutes. Then spread the avocado‑yogurt cream on each pita and top with roasted vegetables. Finish by adding remaining yogurt, onion slices, coriander, and a sprinkle of paprika.
