• Add half the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Puree the chickpea mixture in a blender, food processor or use an immersion blender if you have one.
• Once thoroughly pureed, add the remaining chicken stock and the milk along with all the seasonings. Salt to taste.
• This soup can easily be thinned with more milk to feed more people.
• After adding the milk, do not allow the soup to come to a boil or it will turn grey.

Steps:

• In a large pot bring spinach, chicken stock, carrot, onion, and garlic to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.
• Cool slightly and then carefully puree in small batches in a blender.
• Return soup to pot and keep warm on low.
• Mix flour into evaporated milk.
• Stir soup while gradually adding in milk flour mixture.
• Add pepper and nutmeg; heat through. Do not boil.

Steps:

• In a 5qt Dutch oven, bring spinach, broth and carrots to a boil.
• Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Remove from the heat; cool to luke-warm.
• Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute onion and garlic in butter until onion is soft,about 5-10 minutes.
• Add flour; cook and stir over low heat for 3-5 minutes.
• Add to spinach mixture.
• Puree in small batches in a blender or food processor until finely chopped.
• Place in a large saucepan.
• Add cream, milk, and pepper, heat through but do not boil.

Steps:

• Heat 4 tablespoons of the oil in a large heavy-bottom soup pan. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the drained chickpeas, water, cumin and coriander. Bring to boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 1/2 hours or until tender.
• Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a separate pan. Add the vegetables, cover and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes.
• Stir the vegetable mixture into the chickpeas. Transfer half the soup to a food processor or blender and process until smooth. Return the purée to the pan, then add half the lemon juice. Taste and adjust lemon juice. Season with S&P. Heat through. Ladle into warm bowls and sprinkle with the chopped fresh cilantro and garnish with cilantro sprigs.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic; cook and stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the spinach a few handfuls at a time, stirring until wilted before adding more, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, and season with garlic salt.

Steps:

• If time allows, soak the chickpeas for several hours or overnight in water to cover. (If it does not, boil them for 2 minutes, then soak for 2 hours; or just start cooking them, unsoaked.) Place in a pot with fresh water to cover by at least 2 inches. Bring to a boil, turn down the heat, and simmer, covered, for at least 1 hour or until tender.
• Put half of the oil in a deep skillet or casserole and turn the heat to medium-high. A minute later, add the onion, garlic, a large pinch of salt, and some pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and begins to brown, about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
• Add the stock, stir, and adjust the heat so the mixture simmers. Add the spinach, stir, and continue to cook while you proceed.
• When the chickpeas are tender, remove them from the heat and drain them, reserving their cooking water. Puree half of the chickpeas, using a food mill, an immersion blender, or an upright blender, adding enough of the reserved cooking water to keep the mixture moving smoothly. (Take care when pureeing hot liquid; it's best, if you have the time, to let the mixture cool to room temperature before pureeing. You may need to work in batches.)
• Transfer the puree to the casserole containing the spinach, along with the remaining chickpeas. Cook for a few minutes longer, taste and adjust the seasonings, then garnish with parsley and serve.
