Instructions
How to make Chickpea Stew in Instant Pot
- Here’s what you need to do to make the stew in the Instant Pot.
- First, start by making the ras-el-hanout. While the spice blend is not easily available in all stores, making it at home is super easy.
- To make it, just add the spices to a small bowl and whisk them together with a fork or a small whisk.
- Once the spices are ready, turn on the Saute function on your Instant pot. Then, heat the olive oil in the inner pot.
- Once the oil is hot, add the onion and garlic. Then sauté for a minute or until they become fragrant.
- Next add the carrots, chickpeas, tomato sauce, spice mix, tahini, and water/vegetable broth. Once they are all added, give the mixture a stir.
- Finally, close the lid, seal the vent, and pressure cook for 6 minutes. Then do a natural pressure release.
- Once pressure is released, serve the stew warm and garnish with cilantro.
Chickpea Stew on stove top
- Making the stew on the stove top is very easy too.
- Start by whisking together the spices in a small bowl. When they are combined, set them aside.
- Then, in a large pot or stockpot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once it is hot, add the onions and garlic and saute for about 1 minute or until fragrant.
- Next, add the carrots and allow them to cook for about 6 minutes.
- When the carrots have cooked for a few minutes, add the remaining ingredients including chickpeas, tomato sauce, spice mix, tahini, and water/vegetable broth. Give the stew a stir and then cover.
- Once it is covered, allow it to simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the carrots are soft. When the soup is ready, serve with a garnish of cilantro, naan , rice, or bread.
