This Harissa Aubergine & Chickpea Traybake is smoky, spicy, hearty, and full of warm North African-inspired flavor. The aubergine turns soft and rich as it roasts, while the chickpeas become slightly crisp around the edges, because apparently vegetables and legumes can create drama without needing a full kitchen meltdown.
The harissa adds bold heat and depth, making this dish satisfying enough to serve as a main meal with rice, quinoa, or gluten-free flatbread. It is naturally dairy-free and easy to keep gluten-free by checking that the harissa paste, stock, and seasonings are all gluten-free.
Bold, smoky, and lightly spicy
Naturally dairy-free and gluten-free friendly
Hearty enough for a meat-free main meal
Easy traybake with simple prep and minimal cleanup
