chana masala
2 T olive oil 1 medium onion 1 clove garlic 1 T curry 1 T tomato paste 1 can of chick peas 1/2 T lemon juice 1/2 t salt black pepper red pepper flakes
brown onions. reduce heat and add garlic, curry and tomato paste, stir and simmer a couple minutes. at this point, add a 1/4 cup of water just to get everything mixed in well. add the rest of the ingredients. simmer for 5 or so minutes and add chick peas. serve over rice. chris and i love to make rice in our rice maker with a can of coconut milk and the rest water to add really subtle and sweet coconut flavor to the rice. yum!!
