Drain the boiled chickpeas and have them ready to add to the pot.
Saute the meat in butter for 6 minutes.
Add the onion for the chickpea stew and cook for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes until its raw taste is gone.
Add the chickpeas and hot water, then cook over low heat for 55 minutes.
💡 Tip: Pre-boil the chickpeas before adding them to the meat so both hold a similar texture after cooking.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot at lunch with rice pilaf, pickles, and a small onion salad.
