How do you make curry chickpea salad?

In a word: mash.

Add the chickpeas to a bowl and mash until the chickpeas are broken down. You want them to be sticky, and broken down into smaller pieces, while retaining some of their texture.

Add in the remaining ingredients and stir.

You can enjoy immediately or pop it in the fridge to chill.
