Spicy chickpea soup

A couple of days ago, I wrote about They Draw&Cook. I shared this recipe with you:


Well, now I can say that this recipe was a great success! It was tasty, unique, smooth and fancy-feeling. I made a couple of changes to the recipe:
- I subbed chilli flakes for the Jalapeno pepper and green beans (and frozen at that!) for spinach, because I didn't have any.
- I used a lactose-free cream, so that I could eat this yummy soup too!
- I pureed the soup, to make it creamy and smooth with an immersion blender.
- We served this with some grilled pangasius, which was an excellent combination! A bite of fish, and a spoon-full of soup...yum!


And I just have to share this awesome picture with you. This is my cousin Kendra, on family reunion. Do you see any resemblance?
