CHICKPEAS 1KG
Stove top cooking dried chickpeas
How long your chickpeas will take to cook will depend on how long they have been dried and stored for.
- Soak the chickpeas overnight.
- Drain your soaked chickpeas and tip them into a pan.
- Add cold water until you have twice the volume of the chickpeas.
- Bring the water to a boil, then turn the heat down and simmer the chickpeas for 45 mins (if you are going to cook them further in another dish) or up to 1 hour. Taste to see if they are tender. If not, continue cooking, checking the tenderness every 10 mins. Drain.
If you want to cook a whole bag at a time and freeze them in batches then cool them first. They will freeze for up to a month or keep in the fridge for up to three days.
