Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup dried garbanzo beans, soaked overnight in water to cover & drained
1 medium onion, chopped
5 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup golden raisin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon mace
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
2 lbs chuck roast or 2 lbs beef brisket
2 sweet potatoes or 2 yams, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch slices
3 large eggs
3 -4 cups chicken broth or 3 -4 cups water
salt and black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the chickpeas, onion, garlic, raisins, pepper, cinnamon, mace, and turmeric in a pre-soaked 4-quart clay pot.
  • Place the meat on the chickpea mixture.
  • Arrange the sweet potatoes and whole eggs around the meat.
  • Add enough broth or water so the meat and eggs are nearly covered.
  • Cover the pot and place in a cold oven.
  • Set the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
  • Cook for about 4 hours, until the meat is tender, adding liquid as needed so the eggs are always at least partly submerged.
  • To serve, peel and quarter the eggs. Make a bed of chickpeas and yams on each plate and top with slices of beef and pieces of eggs.
