  • Soak dry green chickpeas overnight and pressure cook up to 4 whistles.Allow it to cool . Once cooled just use a masher to roughly mash them.
  • Heat oil in a skillet. Add jeera ,chopped onions and green chilli.
  • Once the onions are slightly golden brown add finely chopped tomatoes until tomatoes are mushy.
  • Now add sliced mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook it or about 5 minutes until the mushrooms release their liquid and are soft and cooked.
  • Add turmeric, chilli powder, garam masala and mix well .Allow it to cook for about 5 minutes.

  • Mix well and add salt if needed. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until they absorb the spices.
  • Garnish with finely chopped fresh coriander and turn off the heat.
  • Serve with any whole grain , Roti or bread toast. I love to eat it on its own as it is wholesome and filling .

Notes

  1. You can add any variety of chickpeas.
  2. Bell peppers also can be added ,I did not add as i did not have them.
  3. You can add nutritional yeast to give a nice umami flavor. Skip garam masala and add smoked paprika and chilli flakes instead.
  4. You can also add soya sauce in case you do not have nutritional yeast.
  5. I have made it completely Indian style to suit my family's taste.
  6. Add chilli powder as per your spice tolerance.
  7. Great alternative for Tofu scramble
