Ingredients
 
 

  • 5 potatoes medium sized new potatoes
  • 2 green onions white and green parts
  • 1.5 tbsp lemon juice fresh
  • 1 tbsp cilantro finely chopped
  • 0.5 can chickpeas 1/2 of a 15-oz can, drained and rinsed
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 0.125 tsp red chile crushed red chile pepper
  • 1 pinch sea salt (optional) to taste

Instructions
 

  • Scrub the potatoes and cut in half.
  • Steam the potatoes in a steamer insert over boiling water. Cover, until tender when pierced with a fork (about 10 to 15 minutes). Remove from heat and transfer into a bowl with cold water to let them cool.
  • Scoop out the middle of the potatoes with a teaspoon or melon baller. Save scooped-out flesh for the filling (put in the food processor) and set the remainder of the potatoes aside.
  • Add the other ingredients to the food processor. Use a food processor to get the correct consistency. When using a blender, you will need to add to much liquid to blend everything.
  • Puree until a smooth paste forms.
  • Fill the potato skins with the chickpea/potato mixture.
