Ingredients
- For the dumplings:
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons hot chili powder
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 15.5 ounce can garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
- 14.5 ounce can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 ounce feta cheese
- 1/3 cup corn meal
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons hot water
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Preparation
Step 1
In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in chili powders and garlic - cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in broth, water, oregano, salt, pepper, garbanzo beans and tomatoes - bring mixture to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
To make the dumplings:
In a small bowl, stir together corn meal and salt. Add hot water and oil - stir just until the dough comes together. Evenly divide the mixture into 24 tiny balls (about the size of the beans) - if you want, you can make these a little bigger as it is tedious to get 24 out of this small portion of dough. Add dumplings to the soup and cook until they begin to float - about 3-5 minutes. Stir in chopped cilantro and lime juice right before serving. Top each portion with about 1 tablespoon of the feta cheese once portioned out.
Try cutting dumplings in half first time you make it.
