directions

  • Defrost your spinach and rinse the rice.
  • Put rice in a pan and fill with water (water should be about and inch and a half over the rice).
  • Bring to the boil and add your spinach.
  • Boil until the rice is cooked; strain and set aside.
  • While the rice is cooking heat a wok or large pan and fry the chickpeas in the oil (be careful, chickpeas from a jar tend to explode when fried--never deep fry them!).
  • Add the spices and fry some more.
  • Add the soy sauce and stir, before it all evaporates, to coat the chickpeas.
  • Serve with rice (add some butter to rice).

  1. This is a very filling meal! I added some hot pepper flakes to my plate, but my Brit BH preferred it just the way it was.
     
  2. I found this to be a little bland. I may add some hot sauce to give it a kick.
