So the dish that I wanna discuss today is a traditional North Indian dish that uses no garlic or onion in cooking and is simple to make and very homely to taste besides of course having a lot of nutritional value.All you need for it is hara chana or matar(green chickpeas /peas) potatoes and spices.
Ingredients:
Hara chana or matar(green chickpeas /peas)250 gms.
4 boiled potatoes cubed
2 tbsp oil
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
a pinch of asafoetida
2 tsp garam masala
half tsp chilli powder
salt to taste
Process:
Grind the hara chana or matar(green chickpeas /peas)in a mixer to a paste.
Take oil in a pan, add asafoetida,cumin seeds and the hara chana or matar(green chickpeas /peas) paste.
Cook till just slightly brown.
Add the potatoes and cook some more.
Thereafter add coriander powder,turmeric powder ,red chilli powder and garam masala. Cook till the spices are well blended with the hara chana or matar(green chickpeas /peas) and potatoes.
Add salt and enough water to cook the mixture to the consistency of a thick gravy.
Serve either with rice or rotis.
