These tasty chickpea-based balls, flavoured with garlic, chilli and lots of fresh coriander, make a delicious alternative to rice or potatoes. Cooked traditionally as an Indian dish the balls would be deep-fried, but here they are baked.

Cholay (Curried Chickpeas)

Recipe by: SHAMMI EDWARDS

Reviews(1)

This is a fragrant and flavourful chickpea curry from North India, usually eaten with fried bread like bhatura or puri. I like to serve it over rice for a filling vegetarian meal. This recipe is much quicker to make if you use tinned chickpeas as called for here, but try it with dried - I like to think that the authentic flavour comes from doing it the hard way!

Dal with cauliflower and carrots

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Dal is one of the staples of Indian cooking. Traditionally it has a sauce-like consistency, but here chunky vegetables have been added to turn it into a more substantial dish – ideal as part of a vegetarian meal. You can vary the vegetables as you wish, as long as they are cut up quite small so that they cook quickly.
