Instructions

6 steps

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the pita squares on a baking sheet, toss with a little olive oil, and bake for 8-10 minutes until golden and crispy.

2
In a small saucepan, warm the canned chickpeas along with their liquid and the ground cumin until steaming hot.
3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the plain yogurt, tahini, minced garlic, and 1/2 tsp salt until it forms a smooth, creamy sauce.
4
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the pine nuts and toast constantly stirring for 3-4 minutes until they are golden brown and fragrant.
5
To assemble: Place the crispy toasted pita squares in an even layer at the bottom of a large, deep serving dish.
6
Using a slotted spoon, distribute the hot chickpeas over the pita, adding a few spoons of the hot broth to slightly soften the bread. Pour the cold yogurt-tahini sauce evenly over the top, and immediately finish by pouring the hot butter and toasted pine nuts over the yogurt.
