  • Any new dish is met with both curiosity and a little apprehension. What if it doesn't come out the way it should? Just follow the recipe without improvising, and it'll turn out fine. First, a note: chickpeas are large peas, very popular in Middle Eastern cooking. Be sure to soak them in water for a full day before you start. For this salad you'll need cooked chickpeas. Put the diced pumpkin in a roasting pan, drizzle with two tablespoons of oil, and stir in the coriander and cumin. Roast for 20 minutes, until the pumpkin is tender, then let it cool. In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, chickpeas, finely chopped figs, very thinly sliced onion, and chopped cilantro leaves. If you can find candied figs, the salad will come out even more delicate. Make the dressing: in a jar or lidded glass bottle, combine two tablespoons of olive oil, the grated lemon zest, two tablespoons of lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and shake well. Pour it over the salad and toss thoroughly.
