2 - 3 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp whiskey
Salt and pepper

1 cup chickpeas
Paprika
Salt and pepper

Chickpeas:
Heat a small pan with oil on medium to medium-high heat, make sure chickpeas are dried and deep fry to make crispy, roughly 4-8 min.Once the desired crispness is reached, season with salt, pepper and paprika.
Sweet Potato:
In a small non-stick pan over medium-high heat, add a small amount of oil, place 3-4 sweet potato rounds in the plan, flat side down. Season with salt and pepper and sear to obtain a char, just don't burn. Flip and add the maple and whisky and toss to coat and reduce the liquid into a glaze. Set aside.
Plating:
Spread a small amount of Lebna on the plate as a base, place sweet potatoes on top as desired, garnish with chickpeas, and blueberries and pomegranates if you wish.
