Steps
- Preparation: Begin by rinsing 1 cup of dried chickpeas and soak them overnight in water.
- Cook Chickpeas: Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Add them to a large pot with fresh water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 1 hour or until tender.
- Sauté Vegetables: In a separate pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 chopped onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 2 diced carrots, sautéing until the onions become translucent.
- Add Spices: Stir in 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin, and a pinch of cayenne pepper to the vegetables, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked chickpeas to the pot with the vegetables. Pour in 4 cups of vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Simmer: Reduce the heat and let the stew simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Final Touches: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot garnished with chopped fresh cilantro.
