Black Chickpeas or Kala Chana is an incredible source of vitamins like B6, C, folate, niacin, thiamin, riboflavin and minerals including manganese, phosphorus, iron and copper.
The wealth of nutrients in Kala Chana is beneficial in boosting the immune system, promote muscle mass, regulates diabetes and enhance hair, skin and nail health.
Here, I am creating a very easy breakfast recipe from it.

- 1 to 2 tsps. Olive Oil
- A good pinch of Asafetida

- 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. Garam Masala

Notes:
Kala Chana or Black Chickpeas is one of our family favorite breakfasts. It makes a perfect breakfast or snack for all ages.
Sometimes, I prepare it as a Salad or Chaat as well. Simply, toss boiled black chickpeas with chopped cucumber, tomato, onions, green chilies, coriander, lemon juice, and salt.
