Rett Soup
Kategori Mediterranean
serveringsstørrelse 4 people

Ingredienser
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 5 ounces fresh spinach
  • Juice and zest of 1 large lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 5 minutes until it softens.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add the chickpeas, vegetable broth, cumin, and oregano. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Cook uncovered for 15 minutes so the broth reduces slightly and the chickpeas absorb flavor.
  • Stir in the spinach and cook for 2 minutes until it wilts.
  • Remove the pot from heat. Add the lemon zest and juice, then season with salt and pepper.

merknader

Add the lemon only after the stew finishes simmering to keep the citrus taste bright. The spinach wilts quickly, so stir it in at the very end rather than during the simmer. Leftovers reheat well on the stove with a splash of broth to loosen the texture.
