  • 1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped
  • 20 fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon harissa
  • 1 pinch saffron threads
  • 4 cups water, or more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat and cook onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, chickpeas, cilantro, parsley, mint, paprika, turmeric, ginger, harissa, and saffron. Add water and cook over medium heat until flavors have combined, about 30 minutes.
