Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Thai Chickpeas Source: Great Vegetarian Cooking Under Pressure Serves 4-6 For 6 qt. capacity pressure cookers. Adjust amounts if necessary. 18 minutes high pressure. This dish makes a luscious main course when served over rice. 1 1/2 c. dried chickpeas, picked over and rinsed, soaked overnight in ample water to cover or speed soaked 3 c. coconut milk (can buy cans in asian markets) 1 tsp. minced garlic 3/4 lb. sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 " chunks 1 c. coarsely chopped fresh or canned (drained) plum tomatoes –Note: Muir Glenn organic whole tomatoes is good canned one– 1 Tbs. mild curry powder 1/4 c. fresh minced coriander ……………… 1/2 c. fresh minced basil 1-2 Tbs. tamari soy sauce (wheat free) Drain and rinse the chickpeas. In the cooker, combine the chickpeas, coconut milk, garlic, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, curry powder and coriander. Lock the lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Lower heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for 18 minutes. Allow pressure to come down naturally or use the quick release method. Remove lid. If chick peas aren't tender, either return to high pressure for a few more minutes, or replace (but don't lock) the lid and simmer until done. Add the basil and soy sauce to taste, as you break up the sweet potatoes and stir to create a thick sauce. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
