Ingredients needed 4 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Soak chickpeas in cold water for at least 5 hours before cooking to ensure they become tender.
  • Sautéing the beans in vegetable oil removes their raw odor, prevents skin from peeling off, and enhances their nutty flavor.
  • For best results, let the stew rest covered for 15–20 minutes after cooking—this allows the sauce to fully penetrate the beans and achieve perfect seasoning.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking tips to make smooth, nutty bean stew without the typical bean odor.
  • Parents or caregivers looking to prepare nutritious side dishes for children or elders using tiny dried anchovies.
  • Home cooks wanting to master a technique that keeps the stew moist and flavorful without drying out.
