Last summer our local mexican vegetable market had peruvian beans and i went looking for authentic recipes to use them. The original recipe did not have garlic but i am one of those cooks that believes there can never be too much garlic or onions.

Steps


Cover chick peas with water and cook til done.
About 1 hour.
Add more water if needed.
Cook rice in 2 1 / 2 cups water.
About 40 minutes.
When the chick peas and rice are almost done , slice garlic and onions then in a large pan until onions are soft.
Drain chick peas and stir chick peas and rice into the sauted onions and garlic.
Add salt and pepper to taste.

Ingredients


chickpeas, brown rice, sweet onion, garlic cloves, olive oil, salt, pepper, water
