Instructions
  1. Blend all the tomatoes.
  2. Finely chop the onions.
  3. Heat the oil in the pan until hot. Add the cumin seeds and watch them pop and fizzle for around 20 seconds.
  4. Add the chopped onions and fry until slightly browned.
  5. Add the blended tomato mix and stir fry for around 5 minutes. When the oil starts to separate from the onion/tomato mixture, add salt, ground coriander, garam masala, turmeric and chilli powder.
  6. Add the drained chickpeas. Stir it all up and add a small glass of water to the pot. Bring to a fierce boil, then turn down to a simmer with the lid partially on.
  7. After 10 minutes of simmering, add some freshly chopped coriander. Keep it simmering for around 5 minutes more, then turn the heat off.
