Hints and tips

• To steam dried chickpeas, soak for 12 hours. Then drain the soaked chickpeas and place in an unperforated steam container. Cover with water and place into the steam oven. Steam at 100°C for 50 minutes, or until soft.
• Diamond shell clams can be found frozen in Australia is some fishmongers. While the flavour is not the same this recipe can also be made with other clam species and pipies.
