Chickpea pilaf in the rice cooker
  • 1 whole onion
  • 3–4 tbsp olive oil
  • salt
Press the flash rice setting, and turn it off and press it again after three or four minutes to keep the heat high. Cook 10 to 15 minutes until the onion is soft and golden.
Grate in the garlic and stir a few seconds until fragrant.
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1–2 can chickpeas
Rinse and dry the chickpeas, add and stir together.
  • 2 cup basmati rice
Rinse the basmati rice four or five times until the water runs clear, then soak in cool water to draw out the extra starch, and drain.
  • 2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tsp salt
  • black pepper
  • lemon juice
Add the drained rice with the stock, the salt and the black pepper, mix, and run the white rice setting.
Fluff the rice when it beeps.
