- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 3 tablespoons Peanut oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Dried parsley

- 1/2 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Garlic powder

Make it step by step
- Soak the chick peas overnight in lots of water. Then bring to a boil, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours.
- Mix the onions and spices together in a small bowl. Using a non-stick pan, then fry in the oil until the onions are brown (5 to 10 minutes).
- Thoroughly mix the fried onion, cooked chick peas, lemon juice, parsley, and mint in a medium size bowl.
- On medium-high heat, fry everything until the chick peas start to soften (about 10 minutes). Cover, and set the heat on very low for 15 to 20 minutes.
