Channa Masalawith Lemon Rice
Channa Masala is a beloved North Indian comfort food—plus it’s a great source of fiber and protein. To prepare our version, we soak chickpeas overnight, then slowly cook them in a mild, fragrant onion gravy. This dish is paired with a serving of Basmati lemon rice, which is grown in the Himalayan foothills and prepared with pure lemon juice, turmeric, and lentils.
