Ingredients

2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas (unsalted), or 3 cups cooked chickpeas 

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 teaspoon cumin seeds


1 large onion, finely chopped 

1 teaspoon garlic cloves, finely chopped

2 teaspoons ginger, peeled and grated 

1⁄2 cup tomato sauce (unsalted)

1⁄4 teaspoon turmeric


2 teaspoons ground coriander


1⁄2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste 

1⁄2 teaspoon salt 

2 ½ cups water


1 teaspoon garam masala


1 tablespoon lemon juice 

2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped 

Instructions
  1. Rinse canned beans in a strainer. Set aside.
  2. In a medium pot, heat oil on medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds, and cook for a few seconds until cumin seeds turn golden brown. Add onion and fry 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown. Add garlic and ginger, and cook for a few seconds, until fragrant.
