ReplyDeleteShaista,thanx for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI saw the black chickpeas at the supermarket& thought they look very interesting to make.
I will make sure to try your recipe..but I have a question you just soak them overnight?
When I cook regular chickpeas I always soak & boil until cooked..is this different?
@umelbanat:thanks for liking the recipe. For this recipe you do not have to boil chickpeas, just follow the directions given above. hope u will enjoy it.
