Yummy Sundal Ready !!!!
Tips : You can do a lot of mix n match with this. Try replace onions with grated coconut. This also tastes really good. However my mom's traditional way is to add grated coconut and dried red chillies (without onions, chilli powder & garam masala). You will love this as well.
Hey Sangee, there was a point when I used to eat just black chickpeas for breakfast, and sometimes as a snack too. That's when I lost a lotttt of weight :) I used to vary it - top with curd and sev, apdee ellam. You should try using roasted cumin powder, the ones they use in all chaats, instead of garam masala too.
