Will pressure cook chana tonight to have them ready to be tossed in spices tomorrow morning 🙂 Festivities on weekdays & the thought of doing it all can be overwhelming so learning to manage my tasks as per my schedules to continue celebrating the traditions 🙃 . What’s cooking? Sookhe Kale Chane aka Dry Black Chickpeas, tossed in a paste of spices and perfect to pair with poori, parantha, snacking goals or even a salad 🥰 For that extra dark color to your chana, cook them in a cast iron pan or kadhai and see the magic for yourself 🤩 Soak Chana - Pressure Cook - Toss with spices - Ready - Ingredients & Recipe ⬇️ . . Ingredients 2 tbsp oil 1 tsp cumin seeds 1/4 tsp heeng 1 tsp each salt, red chili powder, coriander powder, dry mango powder 1/2 tsp black pepper, garam masala 2 cups black chickpeas (soaked 6-8 hours) . . Pressure cook soaked and drained chickpeas in Instant pot for 45 mins with 4 cups water + 1 tsp salt. Natural release pressure (takes approx 25 mins) . Add all the spices to a small bowl + a little water to make a smooth paste, keep aside- in a pan (I use a cast iron pan for that extra dark color) add oil - once warm add cumin seeds let splutter but not burnt - add heeng toss for 10 seconds - on low medium heat add masala paste (+ 2 to 3 tbsp water) to avoid spices from getting burnt - stir well and let it sizzle for a minute or so until it begins to bubble and you see it releasing oil, add cooked chickpeas without water - mix well until masala is well combined - let them cook on medium heat tossing in between until water is completely dry and chana turns dark, about 10-15 mins. . . . . . #cookingishappiness #cookwithprerna #indianfood #comfortfood #easyrecipes #healthyrecipes #chickpeas #halwapuri #vegetarianfood #vegetarianrecipes #soulfood #delhieats #delhifood #northindianfood #punjabifood #gharkakhana #desifood #vegetarian #sodelicious #realsimple #beautifulcuisines #whatsonmyplate #recipeoftheday #recipes #indianrecipes #desifoodie #mumbai_igers #indiaclicks #ndtvfood ## Stats - **Views:** 0 - **Likes:** 461 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 84 ## Credits No public credits are recorded here.
