Spinach With Chickpeas Recipe

Beside the fact that all of the ingredients are tasty and interesting, when they are brought together the combination of spinach with chickpeas is fantastic. You can serve this meal with rice or buckwheat as side dishes, or as such, either way, it's very delicious. 

Also, it's really quick to prepare, on condition you have the chickpeas already boiled (frozen or canned), as well as the spinach. I recommend using cooking cream instead of fermented cream, such as whipping or heavy cream, which are more resistant to curdling.
