Shweta, this one is for you so that you can cook it for Rahul and make him happy!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup kabuli chana or chick peas or garbanzo beans
- 2 tbs oil
- 1tbs ginger cut into juliennes
- 1 chopped green chilli
- 1 tbs coriander powder
- 1 tsp roasted jeera powder
- 1/2 tsp chilli powder
- 1 tsp chaat masala
- 1/2 tsp garam masala
- salt to taste
- chopped coriander, onion rings, and 1 green chilli for garnishing.
Method:
Soak the chana for about 6 hours and then add a little salt and pressure cook it. I usually pressure cook it for 15 mins on sim after the initial 2 whistles. Drain out the water from cooked chana, but don't throw it. Put oil in a kadhai and after it gets hot add ginger, coriander & jeera powder, chopped green chilli, chaat masala, garam masala, chilli powder and boiled chana. Mix everything well and cover and cook it on sim for 5 mins. Add salt only if necessary. Sprinkle some of the drained chana water if it seems too dry. If you like them a little more tangy, you may add a little amchur powder. Garnish the chana with onion rings, coriander and green chilli and serve it with nice hot puris.
