Ingredients
  • 3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 Small potato, peeled and thinly diced
  • 2 Garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 White cabbage head, thinly sliced
  • 250g (1 cup) cooked organic chickpeas
  • 1 Teaspoon Pimentón de la Vera (Spanish Paprika)
  • Salt
Instructions
  1. Have all the vegetables well washed and prepared as indicated in the ingredients description. Rinse the chickpeas well and drain.
  2. In a large frying pan heat the olive oil over moderate heat, add the potatoes and a pinch of salt and sauté for about 10 minutes until lightly golden. Add then, in the middle of the frying pan, the garlic and sauté for 1 minute. After that add the drained chickpeas and stir all together for 2 more minutes.
  3. Remove the frying pan from the heat and put its content aside on a dish.
  4. Using the same frying pan, add a drop of olive oil and the thinly sliced cabbage, sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes and remove from the heat.
  5. Finally add to the cabbage the potatoes, chickpeas and garlic mix that you had left aside, a teaspoon of Pimentón de la Vera (Spanish Paprika) and salt to taste, mix it all together. And serve warm.
Notes
If you were using dried chickpeas, to cook them: soak the dried chickpeas in warm water for 12 hours with ⅓ teaspoon of baking soda (ideally leave them soaked overnight). Rinse them well and drain. Bring water to a boil in a cooking pot and when the water is boiling add the chickpeas and leave them cooking over low heat for 2 hours until tender.

You can drizzle some extra virgin olive oil over the salad right before serving.
