11 Reviews of Gingery Chickpeas in Spicy Tomato Sauce

From: kitkat 2

Very good and easy! I added cauliflower, it would also go well with potatoes. If you are used to spicy foods, this is not spicy. I think next time I'll add curry powder or cayenne to spice it up.

    Always on the hunt for vegetarian recipes that are WW point friendly. Add to that economical and great tasting and this recipe scores all around. The flavors are wonderful with a nice hit of ginger that creates a peppery warmth without being hot. I found that I needed a little more liquid after cooking for 30 minutes and added 1/2 cup of fat free broth. Served it on top of cauliflower which next time I would cook right in the dish so that it would absorb some of the taste of the dish. Thanks! Made for the Went to the Market Tag Game.

    I knew I was going to love this just by the fragrant smell coming from the pot as it simmered. This is a delicious, filling meatless dish. I made this just as written using the stovetop method. If you don't have green onions for garnish, I think fresh cilantro would be a great substitute. Thanx for sharing this healthy, inexpensive recipe!

    I must say this was really good. Especially if you like ginger. I made it from dried chick peas that I cooked than used part of them for this recipe. Did not alter anything. This is keeper.

    i'm eating this right now and it's great! the seasoning is perfect. i used dried chickpeas and skimped on the soaking time a bit, so they aren't quite soft enough. can't blame that on the recipe!

    Perfection plus here. As others have mentioned a great sauce for the special little chickpea, so how could you go wrong? I followed this exactly and served this on top of fresh thick sliced tomatoes. Yum! The chickpeas had the perfect pop for the tomato and the sauce! Well....just excellent. I had dried chickpeas that I made the day prior of using. I used fresh green pepper and jalapeno peppers (chopped) for the topping. Made for Everyday is a Holiday! May 2009

    This is the only recipe that makes chickpeas yummy. I made a couple of additions. I used leftover tomato sauce instead of diced tomatoes. I also added chopped celery which gave it a great contrast to the chickpeas. To make it thicker, I mixed in leftover rice. The hardest part was waiting for it to finish simmering. This smells and tastes SO GOOD!

    Very tasty and filling recipe. I did not have cumin on hand, so I did without and it still tasted delicious. I will have to try it with cumin next time because that is one of my favorite spices.
