Simple Chana masala/ Chickpea curry

Chana Masala/CHICKPEAS CURRY is my all time favorite mainly when I miss my home and want something comfortable.

It is generally made of chickpeas/kabuli chana.

It is a very simple lip smacking recipe.

This recipe is famous recipe of Bengal and is known as Chana Masala. It can be made with onion,ginger,garlic or it can be made 100% veg by not using onion or garlic.

In Bengal after Durga Puja, there is something call ‘bijaya’, in this period people visit people’s house where they exchange some sweets and in every house this recipe is common.

You can say it’s a recipe which has my so many great childhood memories.

It goes great with Roti, Tortillas,paratha or rice or you can just have it as “Chaat”, by adding some tamarind pulp,some bhujiya/sev on the top.

So,let’s make Chana Masala/Chickpeas curry 👇👇👇
