2. Add the drained chickpeas, tinned tomatoes, chicken stock cube and dried Thyme. Stir to combine all the ingredients. Allow to simmer for around 10-15 minutes with a lid on.
3. Next add in the bell pepper and the tomato paste plus the sugar. Stir once more to combine. Add a little more water as the sauce reduces and thickens. Simmer on a very low heat with the lid on for around 2 hours, ensuring it doesn't reduce too much. Simply add a little bit of water if you feel it needs to be less thick.
