Instructions

1. Either soak the dried chickpeas overnight and prepare them according to the instructions on the packet, or cook them in a pressure cooker for 30 minutes.
2. If canned chickpeas are used, this step is not necessary!
3. Season the yogurt with salt, pepper, sugar and lemon juice according to taste.
4. Peel the onion, cut into strips and mix with the yogurt sauce. Add the soft chickpeas.
5. Cut the tomatoes into slices and arrange on a plate.
6. Peel the cucumber and cut into pieces. Also serve as a bed on the plate.
7. Spread the chickpeas with the sauce and the onions on top.
8. Fresh chapatis (Indian flatbread) or naan bread also taste very good!
9. Whole milk yogurt (or cream yogurt) should always be used for the yogurt sauce, otherwise the dish will taste rather bland!
