    Good recipe. The Indian grocer usually has big jars of pre-minced ginger and garlic (or a mix) at a much lower price than typical supermarkets. It’s a good time saver for many recipes (including ones that aren’t Indian!)

      (including ones that aren’t Indian!). My stepmom is Chinese and the first time I cooked something for my dad and her she was almost offended if I asked if they had ginger. She was like never ask a Chinese person if they have ginger just ask where’s the ginger.

    Excellent! I first encountered chana masala as Punjabi chhole masala years ago and I was immediately hooked. I’m normally a meat and potatoes kind of guy, but I’d eat chhole every day if I had the chance!
