Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups cooked chickpeas
1/2 lb green beans
1/3 cup oil
1/4 cup wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garam masala
2 cloves crushed garlic
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 cup oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
2 tablespoons minced onions
1 teaspoon grated ginger

Steps:

  • Heat chickpeas in their liquid and drain.
  • Place in a bowl.
  • Combine all ingredients for chickpea dressing and pour over chickpeas while they are still warm.
  • Mix well.
  • Cool, cover and set aside.
  • Combine all ingredients for green bean dressing.
  • Wash and trim beans, and cut into 3/4-inch long pieces.
  • Steam or boil beans until just tender.
  • Drain thoroughly.
  • Shake them in a colander until they look very dry.
  • Put beans in a separate bowl from chickpeas and pour bean dressing over them.
  • Let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Combine the two beans and mix well.
  • It's best to let the chickpeas sit in their dressing for several hours before mixing them with the green beans so the chickpeas can absorb the flavors.
