Chickpeas are a "different meat" for vegetarians. They are meaty, oily, with a nutty, full-bodied taste. And they have a lot of protein. If you stew chickpeas with onions, you get a powerful thing. You shouldn't be stingy with oriental spices either - they definitely won't spoil the chickpeas . It's not that easy to get a ready-made mixture from us so that the word "bahara" is written on the label, but you can cheat a little: you just need to take a little of all the spices you have at home, mix them and grind them in a coffee grinder, focusing only on your nose and the degree of acceptable spiciness. The balance of sweet, spicy and hot is important here: cinnamon, cloves, tahini and sweet paprika. Recipe from Vladimir Chistyakov, chef of the Buro TSUM restaurant.
