Instructions

Drain and season the chickpeas, then simmer them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 7 minutes.

Add the zucchini and spinach, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the cumin, cream and fresh herbs for 4 minutes.

Cook the basmati rice separately and fluff with a fork.

Let the chickpeas simmer for about 18 minutes so the sauce thickens.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the basmati rice, garnished with fresh herbs.
