ROASTED BUTTERNUT
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
AROMATIC CURRY
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add ½ the drained chickpeas, the curry paste (to taste), and 100ml of water. Use a potato masher or fork to smash the chickpeas until a coarse mash. Cook until almost all the liquid has evaporated, 4-5 minutes. In the final minute, stir in ½ the rinsed spinach until wilted. Transfer the mixture to a bowl. When the butternut is done, add to the mixture along with ½ the sultanas and the grated cheese.
SALAD & DIP DIP
In a bowl, combine the remaining spinach, the almonds, the remaining chickpeas, the remaining sultanas, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. In a separate bowl, combine the jam & chutney with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.
ASSEMBLY TIME
Lay out the rotis on a chopping board and top with the chickpea & butternut mixture. Tightly roll up into a wrap. Place a pan over medium heat. When hot, fry the wraps, seam-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Reduce the heat if the wraps are browning too quickly.
