I first created this recipe years ago, and I’m only reposting it now.

With more cooking experience under my belt and a more refined palate, I think I’d start by frying the chickpeas with onion, a pinch of salt, and a little sugar before mixing them into the spinach. That extra step should add depth and balance to the flavour. Hopefully, I’ll get the chance to remake it soon, and when I do, I’ll be sure to share the updated version.

Overnight Bread aka Isonka Sombhako, Pot Bread or Braaibak
As life has gone on and my curiosity about food keeps leading me to new discoveries, I’ve realised there are many kinds of isonka sombhako.

For someone like me who loves bread but doesn’t always have the time to wait, this felt like the perfect little hack.
