Spicy Chick Peas

[daisygirl]

This is a very quick and simple receipe which seems to go down well. Cooking time is about 15 minutes and can be eaten hot or cold.

1 x tin of chick peas
half tin of tomatoes (average size)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
Approx 1" of coconut block
small handful of sultanas
1 chilli (red or green depending on how hot you like your food)
half level tsp of ground cumin
half level tsp of ground coriandar
1 tsp of curry powder (your choice)
squeeze of lemon
oil for cooking
fresh chopped coriander

*Disolve the coconut block in enough water to cover it and the sultanas - leave to soak. *Fry onions in the oil until transparent; *add tomatoes and cook until they start to thicken; *add chick peas, spices and finely chopped chilli. *Add disolved coconut and sultanas and squeeze of lemon juice then cook on a fairly high heat until the liquid is reduced and thickened. Add coriander just prior to serving.

If you have a sweet tooth, this is particularly nice served with a Peshwari naan bread.
