CHICKPEA SALAD - BALILA



Chickpea Salad - Balila image

I love this salad, the ingredients and the flavors are great. It is a fresh yet flavorful salad that can be used as a side dish or main dish lunch as I usually make it. I found this recipe in The Arab Table by: May Bsisu http://www.amazon.com/Arab-Table-Recipes-Culinary-Traditions/dp/0060586141 a few years back and have been making it ever since.

Balilah (Chickpea Salad) image

Chickpeas are a staple of the Palestinian diet. In this salad they are seasoned with a blend of cumin, olive oil, and lemon juice. To make the salad more substantial, add some crumbled feta cheese and several seeded and diced vine-ripened tomatoes. From the food section of the Houston Chronicle. The recipe was adapted from Christiane Dabdoub Nasser's "Classic Palestinian Cookery".
