Ingredients:

  • 1 (1-pound) package Camellia Brand Garbanzo Beans
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 1/2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine garbanzos and water to cover by 3 inches. Let stand for 8 hours. Drain.
  2. In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth, and bring to a boil. Stir in garbanzos. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 2 hours.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°.
  4. Stir curry powder into garbanzos; stir tomatoes into garbanzos. Transfer skillet to oven.
