Garbanzo Beans Chole Recipes

Steps:

• Sauté onions, add garlic and ginger in ghee.
• Fry for about 5 minutes.
• Add tomatoes, and cumin, coriander, turmeric and chili powders, and salt to taste.
• Cook for another 5 minutes.
• Add garbanzo beans, boil for a few minutes.
• Add garam masala, let mixture simmer.
• Remove from stove.
• Serve garnished with coriander leaves and lemon slices.

Steps:

• Drain garbanzo's in a strainer and rinse well with cool water. Shake to help remove water. Let sit to drain while proceeding.
• Cover a rimmed cookie sheet or shallow casserole dish with cooking spray. Pour garbanzos on the foil and spread them into a single layer. Take a few sheets of paper towel and gently press over the top of the beans just to remove any extra liquid- speeds cooking time too.
• Spray top of beans with cooking spray and sprinkle seasonings over the beans. Shake pan to help distribute the seasoning and make sure the beans are all in a single layer.
• Place pan in an oven and set to 350 F- no need to preheat. Use lowest rack on oven and return every 15-20 minutes or so to shake the pan so nothing burns. Be gentle or they may spill over the sides. Cook until beans are browned and crispy. About 45 minutes.
• Remove from oven and pour into a plastic bowl with tight fitting lid to cool. Careful they are HOT to the touch!
• Snack away! Keep these stored in the bowl for best freshness or in a ziploc bag.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the cumin and ground red chilies, and cook for a few seconds until the spices are fragrant. Add the serrano chiles, onions, garbanzo beans, lemon juice, and water; season to taste with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the vegetables are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with ginger, tomatoes, and cilantro to serve.
