    I just wanted to say this a great recipe! I love Indian food and really enjoy making Indian recipes. I’m glad to see some Indian recipes included as most of them are easily made into a kosher version. I make a chickpea dish called chole which is very similar to the above except no tomatoes and the spices are little different. I think it would be great to add a recipe for rajma which is another Indian dish of kidney beans and tomatoes. Very simple and I’m sure everyone would enjoy it.

      hi Sabrina – so do you have a recipe for Rajma?

    Jamie – Can this dish be made with canned chickpeas, or is it best with dried? Thanks!

      the canned chick peas most probably will become a real mush after 8 hours. The flavor will still be great but if you want the chickpeas to both retain their shape and have a little more body go with the dried.

    • I make a cholent with chickpeas and often use canned and they actually retain their shape.
