thank you!!!

[REDMAN4701]

Looks like a combination of throw up and diahrea

[vvenkat111]

And instead of using canned chickpeas that come with harmful chemicals, soak your chickpeas over night and I like to sprout them to remove the enzyme inhibitors in the seed and release the nutrition :)

[Jen2848]

@vvenkat111 how long does it take for them to sprout?

[vvenkat111]

Nice video, friendly and personable chef.

As for the recipe, here is my 2 cents worth:

The key to authentic chole is the chana masala You do NOT add garam masala tot his; the taste is different.

Chana masala: 3-4 cloves, 2 medium sticks of cinnamon, 3-4 pods of cardamom, 1 tsp coriander powder, 1 tsp cumin powder, 1 tsp amchur (dried mango seed) powder, 2-3 Kashmiri Red Chilles, 1 tsp pomogranate seeds and 1/2 a tsp of Turmeric all dry ground makes chana masala: Use 1 Tbsp of this in ur rcp

[mathewrokz]

how much more slow can u be????

[unclebanana]

@mathewrokz Slow enough to show your ass how to cook this shit. Chana masala is frickin delicious BTW, so you ought to pay attention.

[khepruuu]

[tonytang2222]

Fantastic!! Thank You Pretty Lady !!! :)

[TOOMUCHPEPPER]

this is a great recipe! making it tonight actually i have made it many times before. my family loves it!

[jimicoop]

Tasty. I just made it. The only different thing I did was to puree the curry before adding the chick peas. Nice take. I love trying different versions of this dish. :)

[praveenritu]

I tried the way you told and it turned out to be very tasty, thank you

[MixingLaboratory]

I Love Chola. ;-)

[Evanlegravely]

Cumin seeds... add a lot of flavor, but are awful to bite into. Could we just use cumin powder?

[aaaiiiyyy]

@Evanlegravely I should think so. Or use mortar

[dilsamrat07]

Thanks for sharing. Nice way of presentation.. but need to keep camera closer to the cooker.. as show in last few seconds

[axella]

I thought this video was great and the presenter was a doll.

I'll definitely be cooking this dish in the very near future. Thanks!

[vincevega0]

Indian style, you don't measure....you just throw in.

[scottholloway]

great video. there are so many poor ones out there.

[jogreeen]

thanks

[bullet86z]

hoooot curry, luuuv to get a taste of that 8D

[imalale]

Great video I just found you drag things out a lot. With cooking videos they have to get straight to the point otherwise they get boring especially if you watch it more then once.

[kgrao1981]

Very Nice.. Thank you.

[vikasbhardwaj007]

looks lovely..will you marry me? :)

@vikasbhardwaj007 Yes.

Hello ThursdayFor Dinner : how are you?

I just wanted you to know that My wife Mindy and I had never ever in our lives, made / cooked any kind of Indian dish until today.. (Fri. Jan. 8th,2010) We went to Macy's a few days ago and bought our first pressure cooker, it's a 4QT. size - the smallest. My wife & I followed your recipe 99% of the way. We found out that we didn't care for "Hing" WOW!! very strong / unique sent. But everything else we included, served w/ Basmati rice. We loved it..

[bluis14131]

It was a good recipe, good flavor, very generous with the pinches.:)

[Sidhucin]

This was useful. But, you should get to the the point, and have a better shot selection. I got really bored.

[DocNayan]

Good job! A bit of advice: next time, please have the camera person take a closer shot of your ingredients and/or respective packaging. Many of us don't have a good idea of the ingredients unique to indian cookery and visuals should complement your commentary. A moot point perhaps, but the chickpeas come tinned or dried. In India, chickpeas are soaked and cooked under pressure. You should point this out. Good luck!

[StuffOffYouStuff]

That's a very shiny spoon!

[shepherd1337]

welcome welcome welcome

[CatalystYogi]

Sat Nam,

Thanks for the recipe - I could smell the aromas from here.---- making it for dinner tonight -

peace to all

[MamaQuita0109]

And you don't have to cook onions long if they are sliced, but diced does take forever.

[supari100]

hey, i agree with you that ginger should go right after the onions and spices shoukld follow soon after that to release  the aroma . nevertheless it loos nice.

[deveshsriv]

aunty plz learn cooking before venturing into cooking... do u really think that this is how it goes?

[inlove0395]

I like that pressure cooker! Where can I find one in the US? I have a big one but sometimes that is too big

[vagabond5450]

Most indian grocery stores have that model of the cooker ........... u can try TARGET too, but not sure if you would find one !!! good luck......

[chefcommons]

Nice work, we liked your video very much so we embedded it on ChefCommons . com w/ link back and reference to Youtube. (Let us know if you don't wish for it to be featured)

[elmohas2ears]

hey, this looks really nice. Going to make of for dinner tonight. Thanks so much for posting!

[coi33]

I'm certainly no expert, but if you're gonna put that ginger in right at the end, you're Nuts, Lady. It should go in along with the garlic, and in approximately equal amounts. Garlic and ginger are best friends, like cumin and coriander. The hole point of the oil is to bring out the spices, and each spice takes its own time to release. The vegetables stop the process so they don't burn. And you should have let those onions brown for a good long while. Six minutes? Ha! Try twenty!

[MamaQuita0109]

You know your curry!!! I agree with everything, nevertheless indian food is about creating it to your own taste. Each family cooks each differently but uses the same ingredients. Some people like the bite of ginger so they don't fry it long or add it toward the end. :)

[rajivdattani]

good :)
