Hi, thank you for sharing these recipes! I really enjoy making your recipes. I have couple of questions about this particular one however.
1. What do you mean when you say “spices”? Is it raw curry powder?
2. How much water should I add? Is 100ml sufficient?
3. I don’t see mustard seeds in recipe. But I think I see them in the pic. Should I add mustard seeds? If yes, how much?
Thank you! 🙂
Hi Diana, Thanks for reading this site.Glad you find it interesting.
Sorry for the late reply as I am away from the blog sometimes.
My replies:
1. Yes, raw curry powder
2. Around 100ml is sufficient for this recipe because chickpeas are already boiled. But, still, if you feel like the gravy is not enough, add a little more water watching the look and taste of the curry.
3. Sorry, it seems like a mistake in my writing. Add around 1/2 teaspoon mustard oil when the oil is hot. When mustard seeds start popping up, then add chopped onions.
I will edit this recipe soon to revise these minor mistakes. Hope you will try this recipe. 🙂
