- Place the chickpeas into a large container and cover with cool water to about 5cms over the level of the chickpeas; soak 8 hours to overnight.
- The next day, rinse the soaked beans and place them into a slow cooker; place the ham bone in the cooker, and pour in enough water to cover the beans and ham bone by about 5cm again. Set the cooker to Low, and cook for 8 hours.
- Skim any foam from the top of the soup, and remove the ham bone. Strip as much meat as possible from the ham bone, and return the meat to the slow cooker; discard the bone. Stir in potatoes, carrots, corn and black pepper to taste. Set the cooker on Low, and cook for 1 hour; then turn the heat up to High and cook 1 more hour.
