Piyaz, usually a name for a salad with beans in Turkish cuisine, is adopted from the Persian word, (फ़ारसी) meaning onions. This version with the chickpeas is called “Nohut Piyazi”, meaning “Piyaz with Chickpeas”.
One of the best things about Nohut Piyazı is its versatility – you can use a variety of vegetables to suit your taste, and it’s easy to adjust the recipe to make it spicier or milder. It’s also perfect for a light lunch or dinner, or as a side dish to accompany grilled meats or fish.
Whether you’re a vegan looking for new meal ideas or just want to try something new and delicious, you won’t want to miss this easy and tasty Turkish dish. Give Nohut Piyazı a try and let me know what you think in the comments!

My canned chickpeas get too soggy any tips?
This looks so delicious and healthy
Do you get basil in india? What is it called also a substitute for it if not available
Too much olive oil is good?
Which knife are you using ? Is it japanese ?
As per my knowledge, olive oil is not cooked or pre heat. It can be pour at the end of cook some thing
Looking so delicious 👏👏
this looks soooo yummy! too bad stores are closed…cravings, will make as soon as possible!
Too oily to be healthy BUT delicious ❤
Looks great and easy to make
OMG Looks delicious
In Pakistan we made this every day its call chana chat masala
This meal was delicious!!! 5 stars ( I added 1/2tsp crunchy garlic chili sauce)
Too spicy
This is called chana in india. Cooking method is slightly different and it is eaten with roti or rice. This looks better to me because I hate making rotis.
wow, beautiful. you also have lovely parsley and herbs. i would include those parsley stems in the salad. minced, they'll add intense parsley flavor and and little bits of crunch
I just made and ate this recipe and needed to report back that it is DELICIOUS! Served it up with some rice and topped with slivered almonds for a little crunch.
❤❤❤❤روعة طبق شهي❤❤❤
How much protein in it please?
Nice recipe 👍👍👍👍
Eline sağlık, çok lezzetli görünüyor 🙂
Nice
Türk yemekleri lezzetlidir ,afiyet olsun😊
chikpea to be soaked before?
Looks delicious!! in Turkey we don’t use cooked onion raw use genarally. Boiled white beans we use for ‘piyaz’
👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fresh salads are the ideal food for health, and Planet Ayurveda's home remedies and advice are the best options to select for overall health.
Very good, also why is it not an asmr yet
We've got a new classic in the house, thanks to you. We absolutely love it ❤
Harika tarif ❤ Türkiye'den selamlar.
Was Sie tun, nennt man nicht Piyaz, sondern Pilaki, denn bei Piyaz werden Zwiebeln und Gemüse nicht gekocht oder geröstet, sondern sie bleiben roh. Aber bei Pilaki-Zwiebeln und Gemüse werden geröstet oder kochen..
What you're doing isn't called piyaz, it's called pilaki, because in piyaz, onions and vegetables aren't cooked or roasted once they're raw. But pilaki onions are roasted cooked
Awesome 👏

Do you ever thought that there is a diet that will help you lose weight, cleanse your skin and body in general, and which will help you look better than 90% of people at your age and which can also cure diseases such as diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure and heart problems and which has been proven through history and thousands of years? No? And in vain, because it exists!!!!
This looks awesome! I am supposing that I could also use canned chickpeas as well?
😅it's too oily
First of all, I really enjoyed your calm and non-talking video. I love that cutting and cooking are the main focus. Thank you.
For the dish; I've never cooked the onions or chickpeas before making a piyaz but I guess this looks more delicious and better for my stomach. (I love onions but when it is fresh it is hard for my stomach). Additionally, I always thought of this dish as a side dish next to the mean course but if I do it like this, then I can even eat it as the main dish.
Super
I want this, I wanna cryyyyyyy
You can also substitute beans, black-eyed peas, green lentils for boiled chickpeas. If you roast and use capia pepper, it will be a legendary flavor. Harika tarif 👌🏻
could alternatively do a Lentil salad, only difference is I haven’t had a Lentil on my face
Merhabalar, az önce yaptım tarifinizi gerçekten leziz oldu. Daha çok salata tarifi görmek isteriz 🤤
Vay be🤧
Başarılar dilerim
Thank you for this recipe. Made it this evening, delicious. We added more pul bieber but otherwise followed the recipe. Going on the must make again list! Appreciate your video skills and quality of your channel.
How many cans (or grams) of cooked chickpeas can we use instead?
Only low lifes eat garlic and onion.
That was not 2 tbsp. of olive oil. If you're going to put the recipe on the video, at least take the time to actually measure. Dumb people who know nothing about cooking watch this stuff.
