Chickpea saute

Despite my total failure to write about them, I've continued to cook new things.  I lack pictures for most of them.  But this one, I remembered to photograph when I made it... er, a month ago.

Basically, this is a simple saute of chard...



carrots...


and chickpeas.



The trick to this one is the seasoning.  It calls for things I would never have thought to put together, like caraway seeds...


And the end result is spectacular.  Really, I was amazed at how good this was.  The textures of the vegetables and chickpeas was perfect.  The seasoning was unusual and extremely good.  And the addition of a nice dollop of yogurt made for a perfect, light sauce.


I could not recommend this more highly.  Truly surprising, truly tasty.
