Indian Chick Peas

1 large onion, chopped coarsely
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp each cumin, fenugreek, cinnamon, mustard seeds, (or 1 1/2 tsp. garam
2 cans chickpeas (about 3 1/2 cups I think)
3 Tbsp. no-fat tomato paste (if I can’t find this, I boil down tomato
2 tsp. peanut butter

Directions ::..

Saute onion and garlic in nonstick pot until slightly browned. Add Indian spices and cook about 30 seconds, or until spices start to give off wonderful smells and turn slightly brown. Add chick peas WITH HALF THEIR LIQUID if canned, with some cooking broth if cooked from scratch. Add lemon juice and tomato paste. Cook about 10 minutes, to let chickpeas heat

through. Stir in peanut butter and cook a few minutes more. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve over rice.
