Chana masala




Chana masala is one of my favorite vegetarian curries and the reason is the soft melt in your mouth chickpeas and silky and spicy gravy .
I remember I eat chana masala,pratha and soji ka halwa  for the first time in the breakfast at  Jeddah. ever since  I am making this .so this is my version of famous chana masala.
You can serve this dish with rice or  bread . or serve this dish for a breakfast along with halwa puri .


Chana masala


Ingredients.
 1-cup boiled  chickpeas/channa
1 onion finely chopped
1 tomato finely chopped
