Chickpeas with cumin and sherry

Recipe by Nigella Lawson from Nigella Express

Pin It

This is not quite a stir-fry, though I do cook it in my wok. It's a useful way of providing a quick, filling bowl of not-the-usual vegetables whenever you want a boost.

Serves 2 to 4

Ingredients

1 tablespoon wok oil or use a mixture of sesame, garlic and vegetable oils
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 410g cans of chick peas rinsed and drained
1 130g packet rocket salad
1 teaspoon sea salt or kosher salt
60 ml rich cream (sweet) sherry

Method

Heat the oil and cumin seeds in a wok or large frying pan.
Add the chickpeas, rocket salad, salt and sherry and stir over a medium heat until the rocket and other leaves have wilted, the chickpeas have warmed through and the liquid has reduced a little.
Serve as a light meal for two, with or without a poached or soft-boiled egg on top, or as an accompaniment to the Scallops with chorizo.
