Notes

  • This is a basic chickpea curry/soup. But, you can make its variations with bitter gourd, pakora, spinach, and more.
  • Best served when hot.
  • This sweet yogurt curry is popular in Gujarat but in northern India, it is considered too sweet. So, prepare a variation depending on your guests' preference for spice.
