CHICKPEA AND VEGETABLES

in #food7 years ago (edited)

Calling all steemians to join me in enjoying this easy-to-prepare, yet delectable and nutritious chickpea and vegetables meal!!!

Yes, I am happy to share this delicious dish with you. This meal is also suitable for both our vegan/vegetarian friends.

One thing I love about this meal is that it paired most of my favourite ingredients namely; chickpeas (garbanzo beans), aubergine, hot pepper, tomatoes, spring onions, sweet yellow pepper, olive oil, onions, paprika, knorr cube, and salt. Interestingly, these ingredients paired so well to yield a yummy, drooling and nutritious meal, which I suppose no one will reject.

This Moroccan chickpea and vegetables dish is an ideal meal to prepare for both your family and friends. It can be served as a main meal or served as a side dish.

This dish is pretty easy to prepare, however, the only part that takes a little bit of time is getting the chickpeas ready. As a result, I usually soak the chickpeas overnight before cooking for easy tenderization.

Just a few steps for Preparing this dish;

(a) Soak the chickpeas overnight in clean water.

(b) Wash the chickpeas and cook until tender.

(c) Bring down the cooked chickpeas from heat, drain water and set aside.

(d) Blend the pepper and slice the onions.

(e) Saute the onions and blended pepper.

(f) Add the sliced vegetables then fry together until done.

(g) Combine the sauce and the cooked chickpeas.

(h) Bring down from heat and Enjoy!!!

Looks really good :) I love chickpeas and use them very often ;)

Many thanks. Glad to know you love chickpeas.

That looks so good and healthy thank you!🌺

You are welcome.

wow, so healthy!

Absolutely. Thanks

That's looks great and seeing as I kinda messed up and ended up with a cupboard full of tins of chickpeas I'm gonna have to give this one a go. Thanks for the share.

Many thanks for your kind words. Try out this recipe and you'll enjoy the dish.
Cheers

My girlfriend is actually in Morocco on holiday this week (yes I'm aware how unlikely that sounds but it really is true).

This would be a great surprise dish to cook up when she gets back on Tuesday and the ingredients are all easy to source / sauce.

So yes, thanks again.

Wow! She must be enjoying herself over there in Morocco and I know you guys are missing each other 😄

Don't worry, Tuesday is just few days away and she will be glad you welcome her home with this special meal.

Cheers

YESSSSS Pleaseeeeee, One of my favorite ingredients ever, and I love the flavor combination that you used for spices. I love this kind of food. I am surprised you did not throw a dash of cumin in. I also love that spice with Chickpeas. Yummmmm

Glad to hear that you like my flavour combination! Don't worry I'll throw in some cumin next time I prepare this. Many thanks

hahaha, cumin or no cumin. I still want a few bowls full ;p

😀 🤣 You gat it!

Chick peas are great for a summer dish, i also like them in my hummus

Exactly. They are really good for hummus. Thanks

Yum! Niccce recipe!!

Yeah, Yum Yum Yum! Thank you.

You made me hungry!! Lentil soup is on the menu for tonights dinner so I'll blog the recipe and take a picture. Keep your eye out for it.

Amazing! The idea is to get you hungry so deal with it 😄
I'll be on the look out for your recipe.
Cheers

haha Exactly !! Where did you get the smiley face?

My dear @sacka, WhatsApp all the way 😁

I want this for dinner. You really should get a tagine to cook all of this in. :)

Go for it!
Yes, I do need a tangine for this. I'll get one soonish. Cheers

I don't have one either. Harder to find in alabama compared when I lived in morocco

Very common in Morocco. Maybe an online shopping (ebay, amazon) could be the solution.

Online wil have to be the solution. :)

Wow that looks really tasty...my mouth is watering...I would add in just 2 boiled eggs n lots of ketchup n hot sauce . Mmmmm. Thanks for posting

I gotcha!
The idea is to get your mouth watered until you hit the kitchen and prepare it for yourself.
Your recipe sounds interesting to try out too. Cheers

Looks laziz (delicious)! I love hummous (which is actually just Arabic for chickpea, not necessarily the dip) in all sorts of meals!

Awesome! I am glad you appreciate this recipe. I also like chickpea hummus.
Thanks

Chickpea heaven ♥ I love it!!

I love chickpeas when they are steamed, and lately I learned how to make hummus with it and it is pretty awesome, though I had to use the canned ones.

Many thanks @littlenewthings
I'm glad you like chickpeas and you are right, chickpea hummus is so heavenly.
Have a blissful weekend ahead.

Looking good!

Tastes good too. Thanks

Looks yummy --I love cickpeas. I will try this tomorrow and let u know

Awesome! I'm glad to hear that you'll give this recipe a try and I hope you enjoy it.
I look forward to hearing from you once you have tried it.
Cheers

I made the recipe - but did not use the bouillon block - I used celtic sea salt instead and it was still delicious. Thanks for sharing.
I made it again this evening - using this recipe as a base but substituting aubergine for courgette, adding , green peas and topped with coriander. You inspired me and I became creative. :) Thanks again

@momogrow, I am so honored to hear that you tried my recipe and I am happy to have been of help.

Many many thanks 🙏 🙏 🙏 🤝 for this. Infact, I can't thank you enough. I am following you already to stay connected.

I applaud your sense of creativity and your recipe sounds interesting too. This is one reason I love chickpeas - one can easily throw in whatever ingredients available to yield an amazing outcome.

But I am not happy 😡 that you didn't even bother to send my own portion. It is unfair that you ate everything alone 🤣 🤣

Once again thank you so much.

Lol - I did think of sharing with you - well at least via some fotos. However I immediately shared dinner. The family liked both versions. Next time I will keep my trusty iPhone nearby and make a photo. It is great that I finally used the chick peas in the cupboard in a creative way and not just throw them in a salad. Thanks again.

By the way, I love cooking and will share a few recipes from time to time - when I do have my phone handy. :)

Family always comes first! So I am not complaining. Once your family is satisfied with the meal, I am also satisfied as well 🤓

Please take some shots shots next time and I look forward to your yummy dishes and recipes.
Cheers 🍻
