Instructions

Start by preparing the rice. For this, add a tablespoon of olive oil in a pot, and once it is hot, add the sliced clove of garlic. When it begins to lightly brown, add the rice. Stir it for a couple of minutes before adding the hot water with a pinch of salt. Cook over high heat for 7 minutes and then turn down the heat to low and cook for 8 more minutes. If in this time, it absorbed all of the water and is still hard, add more water. Let it sit for a little bit.

Wash the tomato and dice into medium size pieces. Wash and slice the cucumber and rinse the spinach.

Mix the oil, vinegar, yogurt, and mustard in a bowl. Add a finely chopped garlic clove and a pinch of salt and pepper to the sauce bowl and mix well.

Add 2 teaspoons of this mixture to the chickpeas.

Place the rice, chickpeas, and the vegetables you have just cut onto a plate. Dress this bowl with the rest of the sauce you prepared.
