Ingredients | Potato Black Inside

1 cup dried black chickpeas (garbanzo beans)

1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided

½ teaspoon baking soda

1 quart water

1 onion, chopped

1 clove garlic, chopped, or more to taste

1 (1 inch) piece chopped fresh ginger

3 tablespoons water

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

¼ teaspoon cumin seeds

2 pinches asafoetida powder

4 potatoes, peeled and quartered

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon garam masala

¼ teaspoon ground turmeric

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 cups water

3 tablespoons tamarind paste, or more to taste

Directions

Sort and clean chickpeas and wash them under cold water; drain. Combine chickpeas, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and baking soda in a large bowl; add 1 quart water. Soak chickpeas for 24 hours; drain.

Combine onion, garlic, and ginger in a blender; add 3 tablespoons water. Blend mixture at high speed until a smooth paste forms.

Heat vegetable oil in a 4-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and asafoetida; cook and stir until asafoetida expands and cumin seeds darken, about 1 minute. Stir onion paste into cumin mixture, taking great care to avoid splattering. Cook and stir mixture until well mixed and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Stir chickpeas, potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, coriander, garam masala, turmeric, and cayenne pepper into onion-cumin mixture; add 2 cups water. Bring liquid to a boil and cover pot; reduce heat and gently simmer for 1 hour. Stir tamarind paste into chickpea mixture; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes more.
