Chick Pea Stew

I'm all about chickpeas at the moment. This chorizo/chickpea stew looks yum and easy. Will let you know when I make it.

From Nigella Express. Both of these take five minutes. Seriously. And, quite delicious. Made them both this evening.

ChickPea and Rocket

This has sherry in it. I didn't have any so just added some lemon juice. Quite yum too. Definitely will be making it (actually both) again.
