This Mexican-inspired dish features garbanzo beans simmered in a spiced tomato broth. The base begins with onions and mustard seeds sautéed in oil. Chicken broth, tomato paste, salt, cinnamon, and clove are then added to create a fragrant sauce. The rinsed beans are heated through in just a few minutes, resulting in a simple yet deeply flavoured side or main for six people.
