Best Chickpea And Coriander Dumplings Garbanzo And Cilantro Recipes
CHICKPEA AND CORIANDER DUMPLINGS (GARBANZO AND CILANTRO)
Dumplings are a traditional English food; especially when made with suet. I prefer to use vegetable suet as it is lighter than traditional suet and of course vegetarian. Dumplings are really tasty and very easy to make. Depending on where you live, you might have to hunt around for vegetable suet, but it's a useful store cupboard ingredient (as well as dumplings you can use it in pastries, puddings and pies - vegetable suet has a long, long shelf life too, even when opened) and I'm sure you'll want to make these dumplings again! Add them to soups, stews or casseroles (see cooking notes at the end of the recipe). You only need 1/2 can of chickpeas, but if you haven't got a use for the rest of the can, just make double the quantity and freeze half the dumpling dough.

Steps:
- Roughly chop the chickpeas (I do this by hand because you want chopped chickpeas, not hummus :-) it takes no time at all with a mezzaluna).
- Mix the flour, vegetable suet, chickpeas, coriander and seasoning together.
- Add water and mix to form a soft dough; divide and shape the dumpling dough into 8 balls (it helps if you have slightly floury hands when shaping the dumplings).
- Place dumplings on the top of a part cooked soup, stew or casserole and return dish to the stove top or oven to finish cooking (see below).
- COOKING NOTES: for stove-top meals, place dumplings onto food 20 minutes before its finished cooking time, cover with a well fitting lid for remaining cooking time; for oven meals the dumplings will be happy sitting on food being cooked at 350F/180C for up to an hour, alternatively place dumplings onto food 30 minutes before finished cooking time, cover for 25 minutes, remove cover for last 5 minutes of cooking.
CURRIED CHICKPEAS WITH CILANTRO
I love this recipe. It is my own creation, informed by dal and curry recipes I've made in the past. It's pretty easy, and great if you are craving Indian food. You can use canned or cooked chickpeas and adjust the spices to your preferences. The cooking time doesn't include the time required to soak and cook dry chickpeas. I don't like to use salt in dishes, but you may choose to add salt to enhance the flavor.

Steps:
- If you are using dry chickpeas, soak and cook them, according to the package directions. (This requires overnight soaking, followed by boiling for about 1 hour.) If you are using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse them.
- In a 2 quart saucepan, saute onion, garlic, pepper, cardamom, cumin, corriander, curry powder, tumeric, and mustard seeds in oil. (If the spices start to stick and burn on the bottom of the pan, add a little water.).
- When the onions are soft, add the cilantro. Adding water as necessary, stir constantly to cook the cilantro, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add chickpeas. Stir and cook until heated through, about 1-2 minutes.
- Serve over brown rice.
CHICKPEAS WITH MINT, SCALLIONS AND CILANTRO
Chickpeas (garbanzos) always taste better cooked from scratch, but unlike other beans, you do have to soak them overnight. Then it's a simple matter of simmering for about 45 minutes. Cooked chickpeas will keep up to 5 days stored in their cooking liquid in the refrigerator. The combination of warm beans and cool herbs makes a great side dish.

Steps:
- Pour soaked chickpeas into a colander to drain and put in a medium-size soup pot. Add water to cover by 1 inch and bring to a boil. Add onion, bay leaves, cinnamon and 2 teaspoons salt. Skim off and discard any rising foam. Lower heat and simmer gently for about 45 minutes, until tender. (May prepare in advance and reheat).
- Drain hot chickpeas (reserve broth for another purpose, such as soup) and discard onion and aromatics. Return chickpeas to pot and add olive oil and turmeric or saffron, stirring to distribute. Taste for salt and adjust.
- Transfer to a warm serving bowl. Mix mint, scallions and cilantro together and sprinkle over top. Serve warm.
