This dish is surprisingly good and easy to prepare considering that the ingredients are so simple and easily available. Cooked Chickpea salad is very healthy and makes an excellent item to snack on. It also makes a nice accompaniment to many major dishes.
What you will need
teaspoons olive oil (any other oil will do)
diced onions, freshly chopped green chili and coriander leaves
turmeric, whole cumin
par-boiled chickpeas, drained and rinsed
lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste
How to make
1. Heat a sauté pan large enough to easily hold the beans over medium heat. Add oil to heat, then add the onion and sauté until transparent.
2. Add the turmeric, cumin, coriander and pepper and continue to sauté until the spices are aromatic and a bit toasted, about 3 minutes.
3. Add the chickpeas, lemon juice, salt and pepper and cook for another 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
4. Serve with freshly chopped green chilies and coriander leaves.
