GUASANAS (MEXICAN FRESH CHICKPEA/GARBANZO SNACK)

These are like Mexican edamame. I didn't know what the fresh chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans) were when I saw them in the store. They come in little bright green, slightly hairy pods. Finally a sign appeared - "garbanzo." I peeked inside a broken pod, and, sure enough, recognized the familiar shape. Then I had to figure out ways to eat them. I learned about this typical Mexican snack. You can eat them out of the pods, or shell a cupful and add them to salads. If you don't have a skillet, you can also steam or boil them in a saucepan. You may be able to find the fresh chickpeas in stores that carry a lot of Mexican, Middle Eastern, Indian, or Pakistani foods.

Steps:

  • Wash the chickpeas.
  • Add the salt to the water.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet or a griddle.
  • Pour the salted water onto the skillet.
  • Put the chickpeas, still in their pods, in the steaming water.
  • Let steam for a few minutes, until the pods are bright green and a bit tender - test one to see if the chickpea is ready - you can even eat them raw, so they really don't need to cook much.
  • Remove all the chickpeas in their pods from the skillet. Shell and eat as a healthy snack.

Garnish with green onions, parmesan, and parlsey. Serve hot.

CHICKPEA(GARBANZO) PATTIES

This recipe makes one serving, because I usually only cook for myself, but you can double as many times as you want to suit your needs. I eat these patties on lettuce, but you can use them as patties in a veggie burger. Enjoy!

Steps:

  • Put a medium sized, nonstick skillet on medium heat. Add the onion and carrot, and let them sweat for about 5 minutes, do not brown them. Then add the garlic to the skillet, and combine with the onion and carrot over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, and set the pan aside, leaving the ingredients to cool.
  • Take the cooked chickpeas and place them into a blender, until they are no longer whole, the mixture should look a bit dry and crumbly. Place the chickpea mixture in a small bowl.
  • Now take the vegetable mixture and combine it with the chickpeas. Also add the spinach, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix all the ingredients together, until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  • Put the pan you used to sweat the onions on medium heat, and add a bit of oil, if you wish. I used less than a quarter of a teaspoon. Let the pan completely. Meanwhile, begin to form your patties with your hands. Grab about two tablespoons of the mixture and compact it, into the shape of a patty with the palms of your hands, flatten it a bit, gently. I ended up with three patties in varying sizes, so your yield will depend on how much mixture you use.
  • Now that your patties are formed place them into the skillet, and cook until golden brown on both sides, about five minutes per side. Be careful when flipping your patties, because they might break.
  • Serve your patties and enjoy! You can top them with ketchup, avocado, salsa, or whatever you like.

1/2 cup of cooked chickpeas, canned if okay
1 1/2 tablespoons of finely chopped white onions
1 medium garlic clove, smashed
1 small carrot, chopped
2 tablespoons of chopped spinach
1 teaspoon fresh Italian parsley
pepper, to taste
1/8 teaspoon salt, but make sure if you used canned chickpeas not to add too much because the chickpeas may already con or 1/8 teaspoon to taste but make sure if you used canned chickpeas not to add too much because the chickpeas may al salt
extra virgin olive oil (optional)
