Chana Masala for two

Chana masala, also called chole masala, is a vegetarian and vegan Indian comfort food packed with flavor and perfect for dinner (or lunch) any day of the week! It also freezes beautifully, so it works well as a make-ahead freezer meal.

Recipe Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons of oil
  • 1 Onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
  • Small chunk of ginger, finely chopped
  • 1 fresh chilli, finely chopped
  • Curry Spice blend (2 tbsp)
  • 1 can chopped tomatoes
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained
  • Salt, to taste
  • 100g rice 

Optional extras

  • Coriander to garnish

Recipe Instructions

Heat the oil in a pan on medium heat, add the prepared onion, garlic, chili and ginger. Cook until golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.

Add the curry spice blend and mix so everything is coated. Cook for a few more minutes until the spices smell amazing. Then add the drained chickpeas and mix well.

Finally add the chopped tomatoes and a pinch of salt. Mix well and boil very gently on a low-medium heat for 15-20 minutes, mixing often. 

Serve with cooked rice.
