Directions
Black Eyed Peas With Herbs, As part of the Zaar World Tour Ive been in search of international recipes that look and appeal to me. This recipe is from Madhur Jaffreys International Vegetarian. Though this dish is Syrian variations are common through out the Mediterranean. For a quick dish, you can substitute the dried peas and soaking with 3 1/2 cups of canned of black-eyed peas. If you go that route, try rinsing the beans and using a cup of vegetable broth in lieu of the cooking liquid. Dont let the cooking time scare you off, its soaking and simmer time that leaves you free to tend to other things. Consider greens and rice as an accompaniment to this dish., does cooking liquid mean the water? I am cooking this and it is very watery, used frozen peas, boiled, drained them, and used 4 cups water as suggested and it doesn’t seem to be cooking down., Very versatile. Made for the simanim for Rosh hashana.
