Directions
Chana and Aloo (Chickpea and Potato Curry),This is a west indie dish, that will please any curry lover. Friends are always asking me for this recipe, so I will post it up here for all to enjoy! You can take this recipe and use it as a base adding in other veggies, tofu or meats. Enjoy!,This is similar to how I make mine, except I cook the potatoes in the oil first to brown them and get them soft, add onions and cook those, then add spice, coconut milk, and chickpeas. Finishing it off with lemon and fresh cilantro is KEY to rounding out the flavor with some freshness. Plus some well seasoned basmati rice with peas. My favorite Indian dish!
