Going Wild with Hummus

Eating healthy means minimal carb and more protein. Chickpeas or also know as Hummus are rich in protein. I am a big fan of chickpeas from a very very young age. It is also a common ingredient of my authentic Indian dietary. I am not too sure if there are many types of Chickpeas but I am sure of 2 types; black one and white one. Apart from being a high source of protein it will also fill you up and not make you full. So I have been including them in my diet now.

For lunch today, I made Stir-fried chickpeas with eggs and vege. I choose the good old red capsicum and cucumber for this recipe.

Doesn't it look healthy and yummy. It sure tasted good. Let's move on to the recipe.

You will need :

2 types of chickpeas

cucumber 

red capsicum

garlic

2 small eggs

1 teaspoon  ghee

salt and pepper for seasoning

Preparing the Chickpeas :

Soak Chickpeas in water for more than 6 hours, I prefer overnight soaking,

Then, rinse it off the water, place it in a steamer for 1 hour.

If you don't have a steamer you can boil them too.

Method:

Add 1 teaspoon of ghee in a hot pan, add in some garlic and saute till the garlic is partially cooked.

Next, add the vegetables to it and stir. 

Add in some salt and pepper and cook the vege for about 2 minutes.

Next, add in the steamed chickpeas and stir occasionally for about 3 minutes or so.....

Lastly, add in 2 eggs in the center of the pan...once the eggs starts to set a little, stir it up with the rest of the mixture of chickpeas and vege.

Give it a couple of minutes to cook then is good to be eaten...Best eat it warm, goes well with warps and bread.

Happy cooking everyone.
