Chickpea Soup With Arugula Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan, warm oil over moderate heat. Add onion, garlic, and sweet potatoes; saute 5 minutes.
• Stir in broth, bay leaf, basil, thyme, and paprika. Salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to medium low. Cover. Simmer until vegetables are tender but not mushy, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in tomato, green beans, and chickpeas. Simmer uncovered until tender, about 10 minutes more. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Combine the arugula, fennel, chickpeas, tomatoes and dill in a large shallow bowl. Whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss the salad with the dressing and top with the shaved cheese.

Steps:

• Cook onion, carrots, celery, garlic, and bay leaf with 1/2 teaspoon salt in oil in a wide 5- to 6-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add broth, water, chickpeas, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and simmer briskly, covered, until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Discard bay leaf. Transfer 1 cup soup to a blender and purée, then stir back into soup. Stir in arugula and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook just until arugula is wilted, about 1 minute.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan, then fry the onion and celery gently for 10 mins until softened, stirring frequently. Tip in the cumin and fry for another min.
• Turn up the heat, then add the stock, tomatoes and chickpeas, plus a good grind of black pepper. Simmer for 8 mins. Throw in broad beans and lemon juice, cook for a further 2 mins. Season to taste, then top with a sprinkling of lemon zest and chopped herbs. Serve with flatbread.
