 Ingredients List

  • 1 1/2 c Dried chick peas
  • 1 md Onion, diced
  • 3 tb Peanut oil
  • 1 tb Lemon juice
  • 2 ts Dried parsley
  • 2 ts Dried mint

 Directions

1) Soak the chick peas overnight in lots of water. Then bring to a boil,
and simmer for 2 to 3 hours.

2) Mix the onions and spices together in a small bowl. Using a non-stick

minutes.

5) Serve hot or cold. Great for picnics!

** Variations **

Add one more diced onion. Use olive, sesame, or safflower oil instead of
peanut.
