Ingredients:
- 1 medium serrano pepper, chopped
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
- 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
- 6 tablespoons neutral oil (canola or avocado)
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
- 2¼ cups canned diced tomatoes (no salt added), with juice
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, rinsed
- 2 teaspoons garam masala
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Blend the Aromatics:
In a food processor, pulse the serrano pepper, garlic, and ginger until minced. Scrape down the sides and pulse again. Add the onion and pulse until finely chopped (but not mushy). - Sauté & Spice it Up:
Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion mixture and cook for 3–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Stir in coriander, cumin, and turmeric, and cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant. - Tomatoes & Chickpeas Join the Party:
Pulse the canned tomatoes in the food processor until finely chopped. Add them to the pan along with salt. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. - Final Simmer:
Stir in the chickpeas and garam masala. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it gently simmer for 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally. - Serve & Enjoy:
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve warm. Perfect with rice or naan!
