Chickpea and fennel stew with swiss chard and fried lemon
Issy Croker
This punchy yet comforting stew relies heavily on pantry ingredients and your spice drawer, and comes together in about 30 minutes. I use preserved lemon paste, but if it is not available, feel free to finely chop half a preserved lemon. Soups and stews are all about toppings and this one calls for store-bought fried shallots and Greek yogurt. While optional, they are recommended for the ultimate spoon-to-sup experience.
