Hey, summer's coming. Try this REALLY. It's so good, and it's different! (It's a chilled chick pea soup)
6 ripe tomatoes, peeled and seeded
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 cups canned chick peas, rinsed and drained
1 cup plus ¼ cup plain yogurt
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 cilantro leaves, thinly sliced
Chop the tomatoes and set aside. Put the olive oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring to avoid burning. Add the tomatoes, cumin, and ginger and cook, uncovered, for 15 minutes, or until the tomato juices start to thicken.
Transfer the tomato-spice mixture to a blender and puree. Add the chick peas, ½ cup at a time, pulsing after each addition. The mixture should have a slightly coarse texture. Pour into a bowl, stir in the 1 cup of yogurt, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate at least 1½ hours, no more than 48 hours.
