Crispy Chickpeas With Beef…

…as a risky dinner experiment.

Lots of garbanzos, an onion, a bit of garlic, and some ground beef, along with a few chiles chipotles, lemon, and spices. Worth the risk? Sure as shootin’, which I realize is not a good way to put it. Anyway, very tasty, and worth repeating.

With a south wind melting the remnants of our little snow—a bike ride and a walk to the library (to return a few items), and then cocktails in the breezeway while the garbanzos were crisping on the hob.
