INSTRUCTIONS
Pour contents of chickpea cans or home-cooked chickpeas into a saucepan.
Bring to a boil. Drain, discarding liquid. [You can skip this step if
you've just cooked your chickpeas].
Now that summer's heat is keeping our range-top and oven use to a minimum,
I thought you might enjoy this salad from Madhur Jaffrey's _World of the
East Vegetarian Cooking_. It sounds spicier than it really is.
In a serving bowl, combine chickpeas with the other ingredients. Mix well
and set aside, unrefrigerated, for 1 hour. Mix again. Serve cold or at room
temperature.
