When it comes to chickpeas there seem to be two distinct camps – people either love ’em or hate ’em! Personally, I could eat chickpeas every day, but I know plenty of people who would not touch them… even with a very long, long barge pole.

When I heard that Jo had chosen cassoulet as the dish of the month I was very keen to participate because I LOVE French food.
