    1 Heat the oven to 200°/fan 180°C/gas 6. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. In a small bowl, combine the chickpeas and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika and spray with oil. Season with black pepper and toss well.

    2 Spread the chickpeas on the prepared baking tray and bake for 18 min. Halfway through the cooking time, remove the tray from the oven, toss the chickpeas, then return them to the oven. When cooked, set aside to cool. While the chickpeas are in the oven, heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms to the pan and cook for about 4 min until softened.

    3 Add the garlic, asparagus, spring onion and kale ribbons to the pan with the lime juice and 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce. Stir-fry for 1–2 min, then season with pepper. Combine the remaining paprika, sesame oil and soy sauce in a small jar with a lid. Seal with the lid and shake well.

    4 Heat the rice and quinoa according to the pack instructions, then divide between 2 serving bowls. Add the kale and mushroom mixture, then top with the chickpeas and drizzle with the dressing.
