CHANNA (CHICKPEA)- KADALAI CURRY
I first learned this recipe from a neighbor who was from Kerala, and she used to give me this kadalai(Chickpea curry) and puttu.I was really loving the taste and her mom once taught me how to make this and from that day i used to make this for the puttu. They call it kadalai, and it goes really well with dosa too. Very for ingredients but will taste really awesome.
