  • Soak the dry Lupin Beans for 24 hours in water; ensure beans are completely submerged. Rinse and place in a large pot with cold tap water. Bring to a vigorous simmer and boil for 20 minutes
  • Dry Roasting Spices
  • In a pan, take all the whole spices for the “chole masala powder” mentioned above and on a low heat begin to roast them.
  • Masala
  • Heat oil in a pan or kadai. Add ginger-garlic paste and saute for a few seconds or till their raw aroma goes away.
  • Then add chopped onions and saute stirring often till the onions turn translucent or light brown.
  • Add tomatoes and saute stirring often till they soften and the oil starts to leave the sides of the onion and tomato mixture.
  • Lower the heat and then add all of the powdered chole masala that we ground, together with the red chili powder, turmeric powder and garam masala powder (optional).
  • Stir and mix the dry ground spices and then add slit green chilies
  • Add the cooked green peas and lupins. Mix well.
  • Add salt according to taste. Then add about 1 to 1.25 cups of the stock in which the green peas and lupins were cooked. You can also add water instead.
  • Stir and cover the pan with a lid.
