Ingredients
- Chick Peas/ Garbanzo bean
- Irish potato
- Tomato
- Carrot
- Corn
- Salt
- Onion and Garlic
Method:
Chick peas generally takes a long time to cook,so if you prefer you can soak these overnight which will lessen the time they take to cook. If you are using a pressure cooker though then no need to worry just cook these for over an hour or until you arrive at the desired texture. For this recipe I did not use measurements.
- Add peas to water and cook until the texture of peas is just right. If you are using corn on the cob then you can also cook these in he same pot as the peas. If not and you are using corn from a tin then feel free to add these close to the end.
- After these are through cooking then add whatever seasonings you have. I used the basic ingredients listed above. Cook for an additional twenty(20) minutes to allow for all the ingredients to thoroughly cook and all the flavours are well incorporated.
Serve with whatever staple you choose. Here are two of the things I served with.
