Aromatic Spiced Chickpeas
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground dried red chilies
  • 2 serrano chile peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 2 large onions, chopped
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2/3 cup water
  • salt to taste
  • 3 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
  • 2 large tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
1
Preheat the cooking vessel by heating the vegetable oil over a moderate temperature. Introduce the cumin and ground red chilies into the pot, allowing them to infuse their flavor for a brief period until the aromas are released. Incorporate the serrano chiles, onions, garbanzo beans, lemon juice, and water into the mixture; adjust the seasoning with salt as desired.
2
Increase the heat to its highest level, causing a rolling boil to form. Gradually decrease the temperature to a low-medium setting and continue cooking until the vegetables have become tender and most of the liquid has dissipated, taking approximately 15 minutes.
3
Finish the dish by adding a sprinkle of ginger, tomatoes, and cilantro on top to complete the presentation.
