Vickys Herb & Chickpea 'Fries' with Garlic & Avocado Aioli, Gluten, Dairy, Egg, Soy & Nut-Free
I haven't made these for a while! Make sure your veggie stock is good and strong or the beany taste of the flour will overpower them

Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Preheat the oven to gas 6/ 200C / 400°F and line an 8" square cake tin with parchment paper
* Step 2
Soak the cashews in boiling water for an hour while you make the fries
* Step 3
Mix the flour, stock and chopped herbs together in a bowl then pour into the square tin
* Step 4
Bake for 25 minutes or until cooked solid
* Step 5
Let the tin cool for 5 minutes while you line a baking sheet with parchment
* Step 6
Run a knife around the edges of the tin then invert onto the baking tray
* Step 7
Cut the square into quarters then cut each quarter into 5 strips
* Step 8
Spray the top of the square with the oil then separate the strips out
* Step 9
Bake for 10 minutes then turn the strips over and bake a further 5 - 10 minutes until slightly golden. They won't go crisp like fries
* Step 10
Make the aioli by draining the cashews and putting them through a blender with the rest of the ingredients, asjusting the water and salt to taste
* Step 11
The recipe makes more aioli than you'll need but it'll keep for a couple of days in the fridge and it'll thicken a bit more as it sits. Use the extra on sandwiches
* Step 12
Makes 4 childrens or 2 generous adult sized portions
* Step 13
You can use my free-from mayo as a base for the aioli instead of the cashews and avocado if you prefer. Just make it up then add garlic
