Instructions
- If you use dry chickpeas, soak them overnight. Put them in a pot,
cover with water, bring to a boil. Cook for about 40 minutes or until
soft. - Place the peeled and chopped eggplant, sweet potato, carrot, and
onion in a pot with one cup of water. Fold in the seasoning (coriander,
cumin, mint, paprika, black pepper, and salt) and cook for about 15
mins. - Then add the chopped tomatoes and 2½ cups of cooked chickpeas. Stir well.
- Put the other 1½ cups of chickpeas with ¼ cup of water in a food processor until smooth.
- Add it to the pot, mix everything well and cook for another 10 mins.
- When it is ready, fold the ground flax seeds, pressed garlic and chopped parsley into the pot and stir.

Notes
- For a creamier texture, I put part of the chickpeas with some water in
a food processor. You can skip this step and put all chickpeas in the
pot.
