Steps


1Rinse rice really well under running water.
2Add rinsed rice to a small cooking pot (20 cm ~ 8 inch, preferably cast iron).
3Add water and bring to a boil. Stir once. Reduce heat to very low (induction #2), close the lid and let simmer for 15 minutes - or until rice is soft and completely cooked through. Turn off the heat and let it sit, covered, for another 5 minutes. Fluff it up with a fork or a spatula. Set aside.
4In the meantime, make the sauce. Add chopped tomatoes, milk, cashews, agave syrup, salt and spices to a blender.
5Blend until smooth ~ 2 minutes. Set aside.
6Pour the sauce into a large saucepan. Drain and rinse chickpeas. Add to the sauce.
7Mix to combine and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to very low (induction #2), cover the saucepan with a lid and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
8Add cooked rice to plates.
9Top with chickpeas and sauce.
