“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Fried Chick Peas

 

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup dried chick peas
1 medium onion, diced
3 tbsp peanut oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp dried parsley
2 tsp dried mint
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp ground cumin seed



 

Preparation

1) Soak the chick peas overnight in lots of water. Then bring to a
boil, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours.

2) Mix the onions and spices together in a small bowl. Using a
non-stick pan, then fry in the oil until the onions are brown (5 to
10 minutes).

3) Thoroughly mix the fried onion, cooked chick peas, lemon juice,
parsley, and mint in a medium size bowl.

4) On medium-high heat, fry everything until the chick peas start to
soften (about 10 minutes). Cover, and set the heat on very low for 15
to 20 minutes.

5) Serve hot or cold. Great for picnics!

** Variations **

Add one more diced onion. Use olive, sesame, or safflower oil instead
of peanut.
