Try Sitara Split Chickpeas in a wide range of recipes, highlighting their creamy texture and nutty flavour. A staple of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and Indian cooking, chickpeas are the star ingredient in tasty and nutritious stews, soups, and curry dishes. Add them to salads as a meat substitute in vegetarian households, or roast and salt them for a delicious snack. Cook and purée split chickpeas for a classic homemade hummus spread, or plate chickpeas and rice for a satisfying dinner. Like meals made with lentils, black beans and similar legumes, chickpea dishes are a great way to get potassium, iron, and fibre into your family's diet. Rinse and soak the chickpeas, then simmer on the stovetop to cook through until tender. See full details on packaging.
