Chhole (Chickpea Curry)

Ingredient:

• 1 medium serrano pepper, cut into thirds
• 4 large cloves garlic
• 1 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and coarsely chopped
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped (1-inch)
• 6 tablespoons canola oil or grapeseed oil
• 2 teaspoons ground coriander
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
• 2 ¼ cups no-salt-added canned diced tomatoes with their juice (from a 28-ounce can)
• ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 15-ounce cans chickpeas, rinsed
• 2 teaspoons garam masala
• Fresh cilantro for garnish

Directions:

Pulse serrano, garlic and ginger in a food processor until minced. Scrape down the sides and pulse again. Add onion; pulse until finely chopped, but not watery.

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add coriander, cumin and turmeric and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Pulse tomatoes in the food processor until finely chopped. Add to the pan along with salt. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes. Add chickpeas and garam masala, reduce heat to a gentle simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes more. Serve topped with cilantro, if desired.
