Last week we went to Pune. I saw a lady selling fresh green chick peas on the road. It was a new one for me. I bought one kilo. I tried fresh green chickpeas potato gravy when I came back. It was very nice.
My son and my husband loved it. It tasted different from the usual dried chick peas.
Let us see how to make

Add all spice powders and salt and sauté. Peel and chop potato into small cubes.

Open the cooker when the steam subsides and add crushed kasoori methi and chopped coriander leaves.
