Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 Onion 1 1/2 ts Salt (or to taste)
8 oz Walnut pieces Black pepper; to taste
2 tb Ground red pepper 4 c Cooked chickpeas
-hot, mild, or a combination

A very simple, but hearty, Greek soup. This is prepared by my
mother-in-law during Lent, when no oil or animal products are
consumed. Kyra Olga sometimes likes to thicken the soup with a bit of
flour added near the end of cooking.

Finely chop onion and walnuts. Place in a soup pot with remaining
ingredients and enough water to cover by 1 or 2 inches. Cook slowly
for 2 hours, or until soup is slightly thickened. Adjust seasonings
and serve garnished with a sprinkling of chopped parsley and perhaps
a few drops of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
