Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Prep the onion; start the soup
- Peel and coarsely chop enough onion to measure 1 cup [2 cups].
In a medium [large] sauce pot over medium heat, warm 2 to 4 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the onion, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and starting to caramelize, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the lemongrass paste, tomato paste, and as much Marash chile as you like and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Meanwhile, rinse the chickpeas.
2
Finish the soup
- Rinse the chickpeas.
To the pot with the onion, stir in the tomatoes, chickpeas, and 3½ cups [5 cups] water and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chickpeas are tender and the soup has thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. When the soup is almost done, prepare the garnishes.

Prep the garnishes

- Trim the root ends from the scallions; thinly slice the scallions on the diagonal.
- Coarsely chop the cilantro.
