Submitted by sfumato

Makes 4 servings


homemade

Ingredients
20 ounce garbanzo beans
1 large onion, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp asofetida powder
2 tbsp ginger, minced
1 tsp cumin powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp clove powder
2 tbsp clarified butter
5 tbsp tomato, chopped
1 cup water
Directions
  1. Put onion in a Cuisinart and pulse until slushy

  2. Melt the ghee in a pan and add onion. Saute the onion slowly until it dries and turns slightly golden. Do not scorch. Use a spreading motion across the hot parts of the pan, and if it browns too fast, remove the pan from the heat momentarily.

  3. Pulse the ginger and garlic and then add to the pan. Saute for another 2 minutes. Add a little water if it dries too fast.

  4. Move ingredients to the sides of the pan and add asofetida to the middle. Saute for a few seconds, then stir into the onion/garlic/ginger mixture. Toss in remaining spices and stir for a minute.

  5. Add tomatoes and a little water. Stir for 2 more minutes until well sauteed. Then add chick peas and remainder of water. Mix well and cover on low heat. Let simmer for about 5 minutes then serve over basmati rice.
