  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 2 onions, minced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 teaspoons fresh ginger root, finely chopped

  • 6 whole cloves

  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans

  • 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat, and fry onions until tender.


  2. Stir in garlic, ginger, cloves, cinnamon, cumin, coriander, salt, cayenne, and turmeric. Cook for 1 minute over medium heat, stirring constantly. Mix in garbanzo beans and their liquid.
