Chickpea Soup (Portuguese)

1. 1

   Cover meat, linguica and onion with water and bring to a boil. Add the soaked dried chickpeas if you are using them.

2. 2

   Cook until meat is fork-tender (2 1/2 to 3 hours over medium heat).

3. 3

   When meat is cooked, add the peeled and chopped vegetables (and canned chickpeas if you are not using dried kind).

4. 4

   Add more liquid as needed while ingredients are cooking.

5. 5

   I drain off most of the liquid when the soup is done and cook the rice in it.

6. 6

   Add the sprig of spearmint for last few minutes of cooking.
