    It would be cool to see more of the inner side of the pot as well, not only from the outside, so we could see the proper consistency of the food

      For this food getting the right consistency is tricky even if you know how to do it. You need some water, but not like a soup. To get the right consistency, you must think that the water in the pot in the end is not enough, i.e. the water level is lower than the chickpeas but not too low. You need to fight your urge to add more water there.

      @@tormentedsoul7852 Well, you gotta account for the fact that in the end you add the lemons, oil and puree some of the chickpeas. If there's too much water, the consistency will come out watery no matter what you do. You can always thicken with some corn flour if it's too watery, but IMO this ruins the taste of the chickpeas kinda.

    I lived in Rhodes, Cyprus and Thessaloniki in the 50s and 60s and had this dish made pretty much the same way with very little differences. It's amazing. I love chickpeas and anything with dill and lemon. I learned to make this dish from one of the employees at the embassy in Thessaloniki who taught me how to make other Greek dishes as well. Kaló fagitó. Thank you Akis for demonstrating how to make this amazing dish.

    I made this last week and it was so delicious! I added a lot of lemon and fresh dill at the end. My husband got mad when he saw me cooking this dish. He said he hates chickpeas and I should have made lentil soup. But when he tried the soup he couldn't believe it. He said it is amazing that I can make something so disgusting taste sooooooo good! He said it was like a nice cooked meal one would eat in a european pub. Thanks Akis! Happy cooking! Cheers!

It promises to be a very healthy and satisfying pleasure. Thank you. (I am subscribed, by the way.)

    Chickpeas are supremely nutritious and filling and adapt to many different types of flavouring from different cultures. Most animals, including birds, can have them too which makes them an ideal staple for emergency supplies for people and pets during these uncertain times. Pre-cooked cans and jars are best (in case water is in short supply or if fuel for cooking might be a problem). This recipe is definitely going on my list.

I had it with some orzo at the side to make it more filling for my weekend lunch as I was so hungry and it was so so delicious. But even without, it is so SO good! By itself it’s really amazing. Especially the dill and the slices of lemon...once you squeeze more as you’re eating only adds this amazing acidic thing to cut through and brings life to every bite. And it’s so creamy without the use of dairy?! And I love me some dairy! Haha. Can’t wait to make this again, and again, and again! Anyway, thanks for this wonderful recipe!

    I have been watching this video for weeks. I have been so curious as to what it would taste like. There are so few ingredients so I was not expecting much but it smelled so good while it was simmering. OMG!!! SO GOOD!!!! Thank you for this.

    Greek cuisine is very inspired by Macedonian cuisine. It also remimds me of Swedish cuisine. Keep up the good work.

    Pressure cooking chickpeas will reduce the cooking time by half, however I like this method. Cooking something in open bowl is always more healthy.

    I love how he's left handed too. Everyone who has ever tried to teach me how to cook has struggled with that for some reason. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge
