Moroccan Chickpea bake
November 14th 2007 04:22
I first had this at one of my favourite restaurants, The Moroccan Soup Bar on St. George’s Rd in Fitzroy, Melbourne. It is a purely vegetarian restaurant that serves excellent food at an amazingly cheap price.
Makes for 4 persons
Ingredients:
2 tins organic chickpeas, drained and washed well
250ml vegetable stock
Crisped pitta bread (from Middle Eastern bakery or you can make this yourself by placing pitta bread in a hot oven for about 30 minutes)
Seasoning:
Extra virgin olive oil
2 large bay leaves
1 stick cinnamon
2 cloves
2 tablespoons Tahini
2-3 tablespoons yoghurt
Baharat seasoning (from Middle Eastern grocers)
Salt to taste
Topping:
˝ tablespoon butter
Pinenuts
Slivered almonds
Fresh parsley
1. Add olive oil to a pan.
2. Add the chickpeas and cover with vegetable stock.
3. Add the bay leaves, cinnamon, and cloves and allow to boil for 20 minutes until most of the liquid has evaporated.
4. Add the Baharat seasoning and salt to taste.
5. Transfer the chickpeas to a casserole dish and add the Tahini and yoghurt.
6. Place in hot oven and cook at 180C for about 15 mins, until all liquid has evaporated.
7. Just before removing chickpeas from the oven, prepare the topping.
8. Add the butter to a pan. Toast the pinenuts and almonds for a few minutes until golden brown.
9. Remove chickpeas from oven and top with the toasted nuts, crisped pitta bread and fresh parsley.
10. Serve with some cous cous or as a side dish with spiced rice and vegetables.
