Instructions

Soak 1 cup of dried chickpeas overnight, then drain and rinse well before use.
In a pressure cooker, heat oil and sauté carom seeds, onions, and ginger-garlic paste until fragrant. Add tomatoes and cook until pulpy.
Mix in turmeric, chili powder, coriander powder, and green chilies. Stir until the oil separates.
Add soaked chickpeas, water, black salt, and regular salt. Pressure cook for 12–14 minutes. Let pressure release naturally.
Once done, simmer and mash a few chickpeas to thicken. Add garam masala and amchur. Stir well.
Reheat samosas until crispy. Place a ladle of hot chana masala in a bowl, smash one samosa on top, and drizzle with chutneys.
Top with curd (if using), chopped onions, coriander, chaat masala, and lemon juice. Serve immediately.
