2 X 400g cans chickpeas ( Drain before using)
\n5 cloves garlic
\n1 tablespoon ground cumin
\n3 teaspoon za’atar
\n3 bay leaves
\n1 teaspoon chilli flakes
\n1 teaspoon paprika
\n2 tbsp tomato paste
\n1 charred red capsicum (you can use jarred kind but I charred mine over a gas flame then place in a bowl with glad wrap for 5 mins then slice)
\n2 teaspoon olive oil
\nSalt to taste
\n2 tablespoon parsley (chopped)<\/p>\n
With a mortar or pestle, crush the cumin and the garlic together until you have a very coarse paste.
\nHeat the oil in a saucepan.
\nAdd the cumin and garlic mixture and saute a minute or so until it turns fragrant.
\nAdd the tomato paste, chilli flakes, and paprika. Saute, stirring frequently, for about two more minutes.
\nAdd the chickpeas and stir to mix. Add four cups of water, the za’atar, bay leaves and the capsicum. Mix well.
\nOnce the mixture comes to a boil, lower the heat until it boils gently, and cook for 20-25 minutes. I like to mash some of the chickpeas with the back of the ladle to thicken the stew slightly.
\nAdd salt to taste and stir in the parsley. Turn off the heat.
\nServe hot. This is perfect with rice, or You can also serve with some crusty bread like I did or eat with Lebanese Bread.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
