Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons.
  • Drain and rinse chickpeas. Pat dry with paper towels. 
  • Open one side of the package of crispy shallots. Using a rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pot, crush crispy shallots in their package until broken into small crumbs (or finely chop if you prefer). 
Season zucchini
2
  • To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add zucchini, half the Indian Spice Mix and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. 
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. 
Form and roast meatballs
3
  • To a medium bowl, add ginger-garlic puree, half the shallots (use all for 4 servings) and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. 
  • Crumble in turkey. Season with pepper, then combine. 
  • Using wet or oiled hands, form turkey mixture into 8 (16) equal-sized meatballs. 
  • Transfer meatballs to other side of baking sheet with zucchini. Roast in the top of the oven for 12-14 min, until zucchini is tender and meatballs are cooked through.**
Prep and make raita
4
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice half the cucumbers. 
  • Using a box grater, coarsely grate remaining cucumber. 
  • Finely chop cilantro. 
  • In a medium bowl, add sliced cucumbers, half the cilantro and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then combine. 
  • In a small bowl, add yogurt, grated cucumbers and remaining cilantro. Season with salt and pepper, then combine. (TIP: Add a pinch of sugar to the yogurt, if you like.)
Cook chickpeas and glaze meatballs
5
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chickpeas. Cook for 5-7 min, tossing often until golden. 
  • Add remaining Indian Spice Mix. Toss to coat for 1 min, until fragrant. Remove from heat.
  • Transfer chickpeas to another medium bowl. Cover to keep warm. 
  • When meatballs are done, to the same pan, add half the mango chutney (use all for 4 servings) and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water. Bring to a simmer over medium.
  • Add meatballs, then toss to coat. 
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide chickpeas and zucchini between plates. 
  • Top with meatballs and any remaining glaze in the pan. 
  • Dollop raita over top.
  • Serve cucumbers alongside or over top.
