About Chickpea masala

Chickpea Masala is a flavorful Indian dish made with simmered chickpeas in a spiced tomato-based sauce, infused with garlic, ginger, and a blend of aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Originating from Indian cuisine, it is often served alongside rice or flatbreads like naan or chapati. Rich in protein and fiber, chickpeas provide sustained energy and support digestive health, while the spices, particularly turmeric, offer anti-inflammatory benefits. This dish is typically low in saturated fats and cholesterol—especially when cooked with minimal oil. However, depending on preparation, sodium levels can be high, so opting for homemade or low-sodium versions is advised. Chickpea Masala is a satisfying plant-based option for vegetarians and vegans, packed with essential nutrients while delivering bold, warming flavors.
