curried chick peas

Here's an approximation of what I made for the December potluck, sized down to a more typical family-size.

2 cloves garlic
2 tbsp oil

-sautee. Add:

2 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp turmeric
11/4 tsp black pepper
3 cups cooked chick peas (I use dried legumes; this would probably be two-ish cans, drained)
Tomatoes- I can't remember if I put in tomatoes last time, but I often put in a cup or two of diced tomatoes

Simmer at least five minutes (longer is better) and serve with rice.
