INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

* 1 (16 ounce) package dry chickpeas
* 1 onion, chopped

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large pot cover the garbanzo beans with at least 12 cups water. Cook over medium heat for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until tender. Check occasionally, as you might need to add more water.

3. Form the garbanzo bean mixture into patties.
