Print RecipeIngredients
- 250 gms Chickpeas (Kondakadalai)
- 1/4 Cup Coriander Leaves
- 1 Onion
- 2 Red Chili
- 1 tbsp Coriander Seeds
- 1 tbsp Cumin Seeds
- 6 Cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
- 1 tbsp Butter
- 1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 tsp Pepper Powder Freshly Ground
- Salt As Needed
- 500 ml Vegetable Stock
Instructions
- I have used store bought chickpeas which I have drained the salt water and rinsed twice. As I have used the store bought canned chick peas, I have used vegetable stock. We can also use the dry chickpeas. Rinse the dry chickpeas and soak it water overnight and we can cook with 2-3 cups of water in pressure cooker till the chickpeas is soft and tender. We can use the water used for cooking the chickpeas for the soup. Canned chickpeas are now available and it would definitely ease the whole process. Heat a pan and dry fry the coriander seeds and cumin seeds for a couple of minutes. Cool the fried ingredients and grind it to a coarse powder. Heat butter in a pan and add chopped garlic and saute it for 2-3 minutes.
- Then add finely chopped onions along with a pinch of salt and saute them till they turn translucent. Now add turmeric powder, broken red chilli and ground spice to the pan.
- Saute them for a couple of minutes. Remove the pan from flame. Take 2 tablespoon of chickpeas and keep it in a bowl separately which we will add it later. Take the remaining chickpeas in a vessel and using a handblender or mixer
- Grind it to a nice paste by adding 1/2 cup of vegetable stock or cooked chick peas water. Add the coriander leaves with the stalk to the mixer. Grind it to a nice paste in the blender.
- Finally add the onion-spice mixture and give another pulse so that they are nicely mixed and smooth and nice. Now clean the pan and the ground chickpeas and coriander paste to the the pan along with the remaining vegetable stock and start stirring it in low flame slowly bringing it to boil. Do not allow the soup to boil too much.
- Add the reserved chick peas to the pan along with freshly ground pepper and salt and stir once and keep in low flame occasionally stirring and keep in flame for about 10 minutes. Finally add lemon juice and remove the soup from flame. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and ground pepper.
- Serve the yummy ChickPeas and Coriander Soup with bread croutons and slurp!
Notes
- We can use plain water itself but the vegetable stock gives much more flavor
- We can crush cooked chickpeas and add it to soup that will thicken the soup naturally
