This is definitely my most favorite snack since childhood
I just love the way it 'melt' between the teeth on first bite!
this cool weather makes me crave this delicious treat
more and more :)
making it..
soak approximately 300g of dried chickpeas overnight in a medium sized pot
fill the pot with water almost full as the chickpeas absorb water and double in size
by next morning white foams appear on the surface of the water
rinse the chickpeas thoroughly until the foams completely disappear
remove small stones and any dark brown chickpeas and give it a final rinse
fill up the pot with clean water ~ same height as the chickpeas
toss in a pandan leaf and boil over medium heat for half an hour or so till it soften
add 3 tsp salt and 3 tsp sugar and simmer for 5 mins
off the fire
leave the cooked chickpeas in the pot to rest
scoop only the desired amount of chickpeas from the pot and serve warm
leave the rest in the pot ...just like street hawkers do :)
