INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Toast the almonds in a pan for a few minutes, without adding fat. Let cool and chop coarsely. In a bowl add them to the tomatoes already peeled, without seeds and reduced into cubes, then season with a pinch of salt and a tablespoon of oil.
  2. Pass the chickpeas to the mill to remove the skins.
  3. Saute the sliced shallots on medium-low heat for 10 minutes, add the chickpeas, salt lightly and flavour for abundant 5 minutes wetting, if necessary, with a little water.
  4. Gather in the blender the chickpeas, the cottage cheese and basil leaves, then blend until creamy, adding, if necessary, one to two tablespoons of water to make it softer.
  5. Spread the tomatoes into 4 glasses or bowls, cover with the cream of chickpea, decorate with pine nuts and serve.
