Chanamasala is a popular Indian dish made primarily with chickpeas (chana) simmered in a spiced, tangy tomato-based sauce. Common ingredients include onions, garlic, ginger, tomatoes, and a blend of spices like cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. Often served with rice or flatbreads like roti or naan, this hearty dish is a staple in North Indian cuisine. Chickpeas are rich in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients such as folate and iron, making Chanamasala a filling and nutritious choice, especially for vegetarians. The dish can be high in sodium depending on the seasoning and preparation, and its calorie count can increase with added oil or cream. Still, when made with minimal fat, Chanamasala offers a flavorful and wholesome meal that supports digestion and sustained energy levels.
