Roasted chickpeas are tossed in an addictive spice combination of turmeric, ginger and black pepper.

Categories     beans, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield About 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and patted very dry
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Spread the chickpeas out evenly on a sheet pan and roast until crisp and golden in spots, shaking the pan occasionally, about 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the chickpeas hang out for another 10 to 15 minutes, checking in occasionally to make sure they do not burn. This will help keep them crunchy for an extended period of time.
  • In a 10-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the turmeric, ginger and black pepper, and stir frequently until the mixture is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chickpeas and toss to coat in the spiced oil. Season well with salt and serve warm. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.

SPICED CHICKPEA STEW WITH COCONUT AND TURMERIC



Spiced Chickpea Stew With Coconut and Turmeric image

Spiced chickpeas are crisped in olive oil, then simmered in a garlicky coconut milk for an insanely creamy, basically-good-for-you stew that evokes stews found in South India and parts of the Caribbean. While the chickpeas alone would be good as a side dish, they are further simmered with stock, bolstered with dark, leafy greens of your choosing and finished with a handful of fresh mint. When shopping, be sure to avoid low-fat coconut milk, coconut milk meant for drinking or cream of coconut: All are very different and would not be suitable here.

Time 55m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for serving
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 (2-inch) piece ginger, finely chopped
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric, plus more for serving
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, plus more for serving
2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 (15-ounce) cans full-fat coconut milk
2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
1 bunch Swiss chard, kale or collard greens, stems removed, torn into bite-size pieces
1 cup mint leaves, for serving
Yogurt, for serving (optional)
Toasted pita, lavash or other flatbread, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large pot over medium. Add garlic, onion and ginger. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally until onion is translucent and starts to brown a little at the edges, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add 1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric, 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, and the chickpeas, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, so the chickpeas sizzle and fry a bit in the spices and oil, until they've started to break down and get a little browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove about a cup of chickpeas and set aside for garnish.
  • Using a wooden spoon or spatula, further crush the remaining chickpeas slightly to release their starchy insides. (This will help thicken the stew.) Add coconut milk and stock, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Bring to a simmer, scraping up any bits that have formed on the bottom of the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until stew has thickened, 30 to 35 minutes. (Taste a chickpea or two, not just the liquid, to make sure they have simmered long enough to be as delicious as possible.) If after 30 to 35 minutes, you want the stew a bit thicker, keep simmering until you've reached your desired consistency. Determining perfect stew thickness is a personal journey!
  • Add greens and stir, making sure they're submerged in the liquid. Cook until they wilt and soften, 3 to 7 minutes, depending on what you're using. (Swiss chard and spinach will wilt and soften much faster than kale or collard greens.) Season again with salt and pepper.
  • Divide among bowls and top with mint, reserved chickpeas, a sprinkle of red-pepper flakes and a good drizzle of olive oil. Serve alongside yogurt and toasted pita if using; dust the yogurt with turmeric if you'd like.

Gingery Chickpeas in Spicy Tomato Sauce image

One of my favorite vegetarian/vegan meals. It's wonderful served with a green salad and soft flatbread. I've provided directions for both stovetop and crock-pot cooking methods, although I originally found the recipe in Judith Finlayson's 150 Best Slow Cooker Recipes.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, large, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced gingerroot
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
2 (14 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
2 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained (or cook 2 cups dried garbanzo beans until tender, drain, and use)
chopped green onion

Steps:

  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. And diced onion and cook, stirring, for about 10 minutes, until it begins to brown.
  • Add garlic, ginger, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
  • Add balsamic vinegar and tomatoes, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Stir in chickpeas, reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and simmer 45 minutes, lifting lid to stir occasionally.
  • When serving, top each bowl with chopped green onions if desired.
  • Slow cooker method: after step 3, add chickpeas to crock-pot. Pour in hot tomato mixture and stir to combine. Cook on high for 2-3 hours, or low for 6 hours.

Tips for Making Spicy Chickpeas with Ginger:

  • For the best flavor, use dried chickpeas that have been soaked overnight. This will help them cook evenly and develop a tender texture.
  • If you don't have time to soak the chickpeas overnight, you can use canned chickpeas instead. Just be sure to rinse them thoroughly before using.
  • Use a variety of spices to create a flavorful dish. The recipe calls for cumin, coriander, paprika, and cayenne pepper, but you can also add other spices that you like. Some good options include turmeric, garam masala, and chili powder.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level of the dish to your liking. If you like spicy food, add more cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder dish, use less cayenne pepper or omit it altogether.
  • Serve the chickpeas with rice, quinoa, or your favorite flatbread. You can also add a dollop of yogurt or sour cream for a creamy touch.

Conclusion:

Spicy chickpeas with ginger is a delicious and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual lunch. The chickpeas are packed with protein and fiber, and the ginger adds a nice spicy kick. Plus, the dish is vegan and gluten-free, so it's a good option for people with dietary restrictions.
