Seasoned with your favorite spices, you can enjoy these fresh garbanzo beans in minutes. Saute in oil and top with your favorites flavors. I used salt, pepper and garlic and my new favorite, Urfa Pepper (that is the black sprinkles)

Ingredients

2 teaspoon olive oil
1 clove garlic grated
1 pound shelled fresh garbanzo beans
sprinkle of coarse sea salt
sprinkle of your favorite spices

Instructions

Heat oil in a small frying pan. Add grated garlic. Add shelled beans and stir-fry for 3-5ish minutes. Remove from heat and sprinkle with salt and any other seasonings you desire. Serve in a little bowl.
Note: I topped mine with one of my new favorite spices, Urfa Biber Pepper. This is a Turkish pepper that is mild in heat, but high in flavor. I love the way it looks and tastes sprinkled on my hummus and now on my garbanzos!

Okay, thanks Tamar, if I ever come across fresh garbanzo beans, I will buy some, but where I live, it is difficult to find much Kosher food, let alone something like this.

This recipe is pretty simple and would work well with canned garbanzos or frozen green peas, but if you can find yourself some fresh grabanzos you will taste something really amazing.

I also would like to know if I can use canned or dried garbanzo beans, because this looks really good.

I have also never seen fresh garbanzo beans, but I would love to try them! Where would you suggest one look for such an item? Is it typically available only during certain times of the year? Thank you.

Yes, I read it. I have never seen fresh garbanzo beans in a Florida grocery, only bagged and dried or canned. Hence, my question. Tamar, what sayeth you?

If you re-read the recipe says;”shelled fresh garbanzo beans”.
