Next heat a kadhai with oil. Splutter cumin seeds. Put the prepared masala paste. Add ginger garlic paste. Mix and cook the masala

As masala is cooked,it gives an awesome aroma. At this point, add the boiled chickpeas.
Do not throw the water. We will add that later for making the gravy...that water is full of flavours and it also gives nice thickness to the curry.

After adding chickpeas, mix well and let it cook for some time. Give a mix intermittently. Chickpeas get nicely combined with the masala.
Next add the water of the boiled chickpeas. Put chopped coriander leaves and let it cook at medium heat.

Next add garam masala. Now using a masher mash some chickpeas. It makes the gravy thick.
Cook till the preferred consistency...
It's ready... Garnish with some more coriander leaves.
