i only made a 1/4 recipe since i only had one potato, but that is definitely 2 full servings..
i didnt have any basil, so i just replaced it with more oregano and i used coconut oil instead of olive..
i was wary that this wouldnt be flavorful enough w/o any salt, but it is absolutely delicious! My chickpeas were already salted from cooking them and letting them sit in salty water for a day, so they added enough salt to the dish..
i also used a heaping 1/2 cup of chickpeas for the 1/4 recipe so there is a little bit more than the recipe calls for, but not much hehe
and for the red pepper i used cayenne.. and was very generous with it
this stuff is SO good and i will definitely make it again.. as my husband said "its f*cking tasty!" haha..
to the previous poster that said there was too much oil, im going to have to disagree due to the large amount of other ingredients.. though i did use
slightly less than a 1/4 cup.. probably more like 3 tablespoons.. so if the recipe was brought back up to the full amounts then I'd say that 3/4 cup oil would be just about perfect.. in a 1/4 recipe the little less than 1/4 cup oil was very helpful in getting the potatoes nice and creamy like it calls for
oh yeah, one other thing was i diced the potatoes before i boiled them so they would cook faster and while i was frying them in the oil with everything else i sorta mashed them up a bit to increase the creaminess...
but, for sure try this.. YUM!
