Garbanzos and Swiss Chard

== Ingredients ==
* ¾ pound Swiss chard leaves, stemmed, rinsed and torn into large pieces
* 2 large cloves garlic, peeled
* ½ teaspoon coarse salt
* 1 teaspoon ground coriander
* 1 small dried red chile
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* ½ cup minced onion
* 2 teaspoons tomato paste
* 1 cup basic cooked garbanzos, with ¾ cup cooking liquid
* 1 lemon, cut in wedges, optional
== Directions ==
# In pot steam, parboil or microwave chard leaves until tender, about 5 minutes.
# Set leaves in colander to drain.
# Squeeze out excess moisture and shred coarsely.
# Crush garlic in mortar with salt, coriander and chile until thick, crumbly paste forms.
# Heat olive oil in 10-inch skillet and saute onion until pale-golden.
# Add garlic paste and tomato paste and stir into oil until sizzling.
# Add chard, basic cooked garbanzos and cooking liquid and cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.
# Remove from heat and let stand until ready to serve (contents of skillet should be very moist but not soupy. For looser texture, stir in more garbanzo cooking liquid)
# Serve warm, at room temperature or cold with lemon wedges.
