LEBLABI ( TUNISIAN CHICKPEA SOUP)
After all the excesses of the holidays, this is such a nice, light and brothy soup to turn to. It has all of my favorites, including lemon, cilantro, garlic and chickpeas, and it has a surprise taste of caraway. Plus, it goes together in about a half-hour (unless you want to make it from scratch with dried beans). Serve with crispy croutons.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan or soup pot, saute the garlic and jalapenos in the olive oil until garlic is lightly golden.
- Add the caraway and oregano and stir in for a couple of minutes.
- Add the chickpeas, broth and water; simmer together over medium heat for about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the lemon juice and cilantro, season to taste with salt and pepper (I like lots of black pepper); simmer for 5 more minutes and serve topped with croutons.
