Gently fry the onion until soft.
Add the Garlic cook for another 2 mins then add the Cayenne and Paprika and cook for another min.
Add the tomato puree and stock and bring to the boil, add the Frik and simmer covered for 30 mins until Frik is soft. (I like to then wizz with a blender).
Add the chickpeas and herbs and cook for a few mins until chickpeas are heated.
Add a squeeze of lemon and serve with the Borek…… Bliss.
