Ingredients

4 tbsp olive oil

1 garlic clove, crushed

1/2 tsp aleppo chilli flakes

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp ground coriander

1/2 tsp sweet smoked paprika

2 fennel bulbs, thickly sliced

2 zucchini, sliced diagonally

2 red peppers, seeded and

cut into thick strips

4 pitta breads

1 handful flat-leaf parsley,

roughly chopped

1/2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

1/2 tsp black sesame seeds

Freshly ground black pepper

Salt

FOR THE TAHINI SAUCE:

1 garlic clove, crushed

½ lemon, juiced

4 tbsp tahini paste

Method

1. Make a marinade for the vegetables by combining the oil with the garlic, chilli flakes, cumin, coriander and smoked paprika in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then add the fennel, zucchini, and peppers and toss well.

2. Leave to marinate for at least 1 hour.

3. To make the tahini sauce, stir the garlic into the lemon juice with a big pinch of salt. Whisk in the tahini paste, then add 2-3 tbsp of cold water to reach a pouring consistency. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt.

4. For the best flavour, prepare a charcoal barbecue so you can cook over glowing embers. Alternatively, preheat a griddle pan on the hob.

5. Cook the vegetables in batches until tender and nicely charred in places.

6. The pitta breads can be heated on the barbecue at the same time or warmed in a toaster.

7. Split open the pitta breads and stuff with the vegetables. Drizzle with tahini sauce and garnish with parsley and sesame seeds.
