Indian Chickpea Curry: Chola Indian Chickpea Curry: Chola
In temples, they serve this without onions and garlic, as a special Buddhist dish. My husband didn't care for this type of legume, but when I came up with a super spicy version, it's become one of his favorites. Sometimes, he even eats it all up!!!Since the fried bread uses a lot of oil, as does the roux, you may not want to think about the amount of calories. But reducing the oil also will compromise the taste, so I recommend using the full 7 tablespoons of oil. Be sure to serve it piping hot.I recommend using the unsalted type of canned chickpeas. After opening the can, taste one chickpea to see how salty it is, and if it's strong, soak it in water, and reduce the amount of salt when making the roux.The chickpeas will absorb a lot of liquid when stewing, so be sure to keep your eye on the pot!

This is a very fragrant dish and if you don't have whole spices such as cinnamon sticks, you can use ground (so you don't have to worry whether they'll get in your bowl). However, I find that whole cardamom pods and fresh ginger are a must

You can add coconut milk instead of milk. I was out of it. So I tried to substitute it with milk & it turned out okay. If you want you can add a few cinnamon sticks, crushed cardamom & cloves, few minutes before turning off the stove. Tomato can be avoided if you don't like it.
