About Palya with chickpea

Palya with Chickpea is a flavorful South Indian dish known for its simplicity and nutritional benefits. Made primarily with cooked chickpeas, coconut, curry leaves, mustard seeds, green chilies, and a blend of aromatic spices, this stir-fried dish is both light and healthy. Chickpeas are an excellent source of plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like iron and folate, making them ideal for promoting heart health and digestive well-being. The coconut adds richness and a boost of healthy fats, while the inclusion of fresh curry leaves and mustard seeds enhances the dish’s flavor and antioxidant content. Typically enjoyed as a side dish in Indian meals, Palya is vegetarian, gluten-free, and easily adaptable for vegan diets by using oil instead of ghee. While it’s a nourishing option, moderation is advised as coconut can increase calorie content.
