I have to tell you all that we tried this and it did not go over well. My

husband liked it and my 7.5 yo somewhat liked it, but my 4 yo and I

didn't. Since I'm the chef, it's not a keeper! LOL. It tastes a lot like

chickpeas. I don't know if my chickpeas weren't good or what, but they

were mushy and tasted like nothing in this dish.

 

FWIW,

that does *not* look like a good crockpot dish.

 

already cooked/canned chickpeas shouldn't cook that long!

 

what i would do...

 

heat the oil in a LARGE chicken fryer type skillet. toss in the spices and

onions and garlic, stir frequently til onions are transluscent. toss in the

tomatoes, stir a bit for a couple minutes. then, toss in the chopped kale

and chickpeas, with broth. cover and cook til the kale wilts and is bright

green.

 

 

it shouldn't take more than 20 minutes, including prepping the kale.

 

use *very* fresh spices. curry powder, ginger, and coriander lose their

flavor quickly.
