Tangy Tamarind Chickpeas – Khata Imlee Chana (Slow Cooker),This dish is dry, not saucy and quite delicious. From The Indian Slow Cooker by Anupy Singla. I made half the quantity and it lasted me all of three days.,Another great recipe from this cookbook that I know I will have to buy soon- thanks for posting it! This chickpeas tasted delicious and were super-spicy. The only change I made was frying the pureed ingredients in some ghee for about 8 minutes before adding it to the slow cooker with the water and chickpeas. I love how I can just throw everything in the slow cooker at night and wake up to the apartment smelling like a five-star Indian restaurant. This makes a LOT of food- I would say about 12 servings. I served the chickpeas in pitas with mango chutney, cucumbers and yogurt.,used all the ingredients written but prepared the dish differently. The day before
I cooked the garbanzo beans (and saved some of the liquid). Threw everything in the slow cooker and cooked on HIGH for 1-2 hours then LOW for about 2 more hours. Arranged baby spinach in soup bowls, added a portion of basmati rice, the garbanzo bean mixture, a scoop of
cucumber raita and fresh cilantro for garnish. Yum! Made for Ramadan Tag.

Note: I Loved These Plain, but Loved Them Even More With a Cucumber Salad. Mix Chopped Cucumbers - used Seedless - and Some Chopped Red Onion If You Like, Stir in Some Sour Cream or Thick Yogurt. Spoon Onto the Chickpeas and Naan - the Contrast Between the Spicy Chickpeas and the Cool Creamy Cucumbers Is Out of This World! |
