This also gets nice and thick without adding any corn starch or flour because of the aquafaba and garbanzos. But yeah, usually I actually start with a bunch of different chili powders dry in the pan, then add the oil and pepper, then add the onion and broccoli, then the bell pepper, then the garlic and a few habaneros chopped finely. then beans, then tomatoes. Cook for a while and add the syrup at the end. But it's super easy, despite taking a while.

I've also been moving toward dried beans, though keeping with garbanzos canned for two reasons. First, the salt content. I don' like adding salt to food, so that keeps me from needing it. Second, the aquafaba thickens better with the canned beans.
