CRISPY CHICKPEAS WITH BEEF

Steps:

• Turn heat to high under a large, deep skillet, and add meat a little at a time, breaking it into small pieces as you do. Stir and break up meat a bit more, then add chickpeas. Keep heat high, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until chickpeas begin to brown and pop, 5 to 10 minutes. Don't worry if mixture sticks a bit, but if it begins to scorch, lower heat slightly.
• Add cumin, chili or chili powder and garlic. Cook, stirring, for about a minute. Add reserved cooking liquid, and stir, scraping bottom of pan to loosen any browned bits. Season with salt and pepper, then turn heat to medium-low. Continue to cook until mixture is no longer soupy but not dry.

SPICY CHICKPEAS W/ BEEF AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Drain chickpeas into a colander, saving liquid. Add chicken stock to chickpea liquid to make 2 cups, set aside.
• Heat 1 teaspoons olive oil in a large deep frying pan over high heat, then add ground beef, crumbling into pieces as you put it into the pan, and use your favorite seasoning for ground beef. Stir and break up the meat while you start to brown it, about 3 minutes. When meat is broken up, add chickpeas. Keeping heat high, saute meat and chickpeas together until meat is well browned and chickpeas are quite brown, about 10 minutes. (If the mixture starts to stick turn down the heat a tiny bit.).
• Add ground cumin, ground chipotle chile powder, and minced garlic and cook a minute more. Add reserved cooking liquid (with added stock if needed to make 2 cups). Scrape the bottom of the pan with turner to loosen any browned bits, season with salt and pepper, then reduce heat and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5-10 minutes.
• Turn off heat, stir in chopped cilantro and 1 T olive oil. Taste to see if it needs more salt or pepper, then serve hot.

SWEET AND SPICY RIBS WITH CILANTRO AND CUCUMBER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit/150 degrees Celsius.
• Prepare the ribs: Add the oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-high. Once hot, add the ginger and jalapeño and stir until fragrant, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add the pomegranate juice, cilantro (fresh coriander), sugar, mango pickle, tomato paste and 1 tablespoon crushed coriander seeds and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Add the ribs, shallots, 3/4 teaspoon salt and plenty of pepper to a 10-by-13-inch/26-by-34-centimeter roasting pan and toss everything together, arranging the ribs flesh-side up. Pour the sauce on top, wrap tightly with foil, then transfer to the oven to cook for 2 hours.
• Turn the heat up to 375 degrees Fahrenheit/190 degrees Celsius, remove the foil and baste the ribs with the sauce. Cook, basting once throughout, until ribs are a deep chocolate brown and the sauce is sticky, about 25 minutes more. Let cool slightly while you make the cucumber raita.
• Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon coriander seeds in a small skillet over medium-high. Toast until fragrant, shaking the pan occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl along with the cucumber, cilantro (fresh coriander), sour cream, lime juice, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a good grind of pepper; toss everything together to combine.
• Divide the ribs, shallots and cucumber salad among 4 plates, spooning some of the sauce over the ribs, and serve immediately.

SPICY CHICKPEAS WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Drain the chickpeas. Put them in a saucepan, cover with 3 quarts fresh water, and boil for 10 minutes. Skim off any foam that collects on the surface, then lower the heat. Add the garlic, parsley, onion and oil. Simmer, partly covered, until the peas are almost tender, about 45 minutes. Add the salt, and continue cooking until the peas are completely tender but not mushy, about 30 minutes more. Strain, reserving the broth. This should yield about 3 cups chickpeas.
• For the sauce, warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until well browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Lower the heat, and add the bay leaf, garlic, ginger, spices, salt, pepper and two-thirds of the diced tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes.
• Add the reserved chickpea broth and the chickpeas. Simmer until the liquid is reduced to a saucelike consistency. Adjust the seasonings, and add lemon juice to taste. Serve accompanied by the remaining diced tomato, diced onion, minced jalapeno and chopped cilantro or scatter them over the chickpeas.

SPICY MEATBALLS WITH CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Make the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine ground lamb, raw rice, salt, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, onion and garlic. Knead mixture well.

• Add saffron with soaking water, cumin, red-pepper flakes and cinnamon stick. Crush tomatoes with your hands, and add to pot, along with all tomato juices. Raise heat to medium-high, add broth and bring to a simmer. Taste and add more salt or red-pepper flakes as needed. Carefully add meatballs and adjust heat to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
• Warm 2 tablespoons olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add chickpeas and a splash of water and heat through. Season to taste with salt. Sprinkle with chopped parsley or cilantro. Serve each diner 5 or 6 meatballs and plenty of gravy. Add a large spoonful of chickpeas on the side.
