Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, garlic powder, and salt.
Cook for 3-5 minutes, until vegetables begin to soften.
Add the garlic and jalapeño and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the potatoes, tomatoes, chickpeas, and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat until stew is at a simmer.
Simmer, uncovered, until stew is desired thickness. Then cover the stew and cook until potatoes are tender (about 20-25 minutes total of simmering).
While the stew is simmering, combine the minced garlic and olive oil in a small bowl. Place the pita on a baking sheet and brush with the garlic oil. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until pita is hot and beginning to crisp. Cut each pita into 6 triangles.
Top the stew with chopped parsley and serve each bowl with 3 pita triangles.
