About Chana sabji

Chana Sabji is a flavorful Indian dish made primarily with chickpeas (chana) simmered in a spiced tomato-based gravy, often with onions, garlic, ginger, and a blend of traditional spices such as turmeric, cumin, and coriander. Originating from South Asian cuisine, it is a popular vegetarian dish packed with protein, fiber, and essential nutrients, making it a wholesome addition to any meal. The chickpeas provide a slow-releasing energy source, promote gut health, and support heart health due to their high fiber content. The spices not only add depth of flavor but also offer potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits. Typically low in saturated fats, Chana Sabji can be a nutrient-dense option when prepared with minimal added oil or cream. However, sodium levels can be high if store-bought spice blends or canned chickpeas are used, so homemade versions are ideal for a healthier choice.
