Canary Island Hot Pot Recipe

Canary Island Hot Pot

From mystic_river1 16 years ago

Such a quick easy and ooh so tasty 'bean dish'...good for lunch or even a late night snack...filling and different.

Cover the chickpeas with water and cook on low heat.
Meanwhile, crush the almonds and pine nuts (garlic) in a mortar.
Heat the oil in a skillet and saute the onion over low heat.
When it starts to brown, add the mixture from the mortar, fry for 1 minutes, then add the tomatoes and currants.
Continue cooking on low heat for 15 minutes.
Add this mixture to the chickpeas, season with a little salt, then cook very slowly for about 1 hour, or until the chickpeas are tender. Serve.

I use black currants. I added the pinoli to the ingredients list and thanks for pointing it out to me. And I just made a batch to test if you could sub the pine nuts for the almonds. Tasted fine without them but I prefer the original version. Thanks for looking.

Hi, may I ask some questions? You mention "currants" in your ingredients list; do you mean black/red currants or zante raisins? Also, in the prep steps you mention pine nuts, but not in the ingredients list, can these be substituted for the almonds? Thanks in advance, I look forward to cooking this! :D
