I teased you all with those awesome marinated cold chickpeas last week and never posted the recipe. Well, here it is:
400-500 g cooked chickpeas
1 lemon (or only half if it's a juicy one)
1-2 garlic cloves
2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp dry ginger
1/2 tsp spicy paprika
4 Tbsp olive oil
salt
Mix well olive oil, lemon, minced garlic, turmeric, ginger, paprika, salt and half the cumin. Pour the mixture over the cooked chickpeas. Mix carefully with the other half of the cumin. Let sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Ready!
Here I used brown chickpeas because I saw them in the supermarket and couldn't resist, but I'm sure it's even better with normal chickpeas. This time (following the recipe, ahem...) was extremely tasty and this will soon become a staple in my diet. So good.
Last week I got an awesome unexpected gift from my boyfriend. A LOMO!
I hope I can take some cool pics with it! I'll be sure to post them!
And I don't want to jinx anything, but I'm starting to get lots of calls about jobs. I don't have any offers yet (the processes are always long and require several interviews) but I think I can say that it's going fine. So this week I'm going to be a busy bee going here and there for interviews! Wish me luck!
