Doublepeamash Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium pot, saute onions in oil. Add the split peas, ham bone, and enough water to cover ingredients; season with salt and pepper.
• Cover, and cook until there are no peas left, just a green liquid, 2 hours. While it is cooking, check to see if water has evaporated. You may need to add more water as the soup continues to cook.
• Once the soup is a green liquid remove from heat, and let stand so it will thicken. Once thickened you may need to heat through to serve.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients into a large stew pot.
• Cover ingredients with water about 2 inches above the top of the ingredients.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer for about 3 hours, or until peas are pureed and slightly thickened.
• Serve with a crusty bread if desired.

Steps:

• Make dough:
• In small bowl, stir together water, sugar, and yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 5 or 6 minutes.
• In large bowl whisk together flour, salt, turmeric, cumin, and pepper. Stir in yeast mixture, then add additional warm water, if needed, until mixture comes together into slightly firm dough. Knead dough in bowl 2 minutes, then form into ball and cover with damp cloth. Let dough rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Make filling:
• If using dried chickpeas, drain and add 6 cups fresh water. Simmer until tender, about 1 hour. Drain. If using canned chickpeas, drain and rinse well with cold water.
• In heavy skillet over moderately high heat, heat oil. Add onion and sauté until translucent. Add garlic and sauté 1 minute more. Mix in curry powder and sauté 30 seconds, then add 1/4 cup water.
• Stir in chickpeas, cover, and simmer 5 minutes. Add 1 cup water and cumin. Season with salt and pepper and bring to boil. Lower heat and simmer, uncovered, until chickpeas are very tender, approximately 20 minutes.
• Assemble:
• Punch down risen dough and allow to rest 10 minutes.
• Dampen hands, pinch off walnut-size piece of dough, and flatten into 4 1/2-inch diameter circle. Set aside. Repeat with remaining dough.
• In deep frying pan over moderately high heat, heat oil. Fry dough circles, in batches if necessary, until lightly browned, about 40 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels or on wire rack set over baking sheet.
• Place 2 tablespoons filling on 1 piece fried dough. Add pepper sauce, kuchela, and cucumber. Top with another piece fried dough. Repeat with remaining dough and filling. Serve as snack or appetizer.

Steps:

• For the soup:.
• Soak salt meat or sparerib and peas overnight. Drain off water. Add 6 cups of water and onion and simmer gently for 3 hours. About 20 minutes before serving, add vegetables.
• Make doughboys as follows:.
• Cut butter into small pieces into small pieces in the flour, baking powder and salt. Add water or milk to make a soft dough. Drop by teaspoonfuls into soup. Cover pot tightly and cook for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Place split peas, ham bone, carrots, onion, celery, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and pepper into a large pot; pour in water. Bring mixture to a boil and skim off any foam with a spoon. Reduce heat; place a lid on the pot slightly ajar to allow some evaporation. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender and soup is thick, about 3 hours.
• Remove ham bone from soup; strip meat from ham bone, chop meat, and return it to the pot.
