    Categories: Indian
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1 c Chickpeas
    1/2 c Coconut; grated
    1/2 ts Turmeric
    1/2 ts Cumin powder
    4 Cinnamon sticks (1/2")
    3 Cloves
    1 Black cardamom pod
    2 Bay leaves
    2 tb Fresh ginger; grated
    1 Serrano; chopped
    1 tb Jaggery
    2 tb Oil
    1 ts Salt
    3 1/2 c Water

    Wash and soak chickpeas in water to cover overnight. The next day,
    rinse the chickpeas and set aside. Heat the oil in a pressure cooker
    and fry ginger, serrano, and all masala ingredients, except for the
    coconut, for 3 minutes uncovered. Add chickpeas and 3-1/2 cups water
    and bring to maximum pressure. Reduce heat and cook for 15 minutes.
    Remove from heat and allow to cool.

    In the meantime, roast grated coconut in a frying pan without oil
    until brown. When the pressure cooker has cooled, remove lid and add
    salt, jaggery, and roasted coconut. Stir well.
