Split pea soup was the inspiration for this robust stew. Like split peas, chickpeas need to simmer for a long time, making them great for a slow cooker.
Ingredient:
- 8 cups hot water
- 4 smoked ham hocks (2 1/2 pounds)
- 1 1/2 cups dried chickpeas, soaked overnight and drained
- 3 large carrots, cut into 2-inch lengths
- 1 medium onion, cut into 1-inch dice
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 thyme sprigs
- 3 medium (6-ounce) red-skinned potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
