SHORTCUT CHHOLE (CHICKPEA AND TOMATO STEW)
Chickpeas are inescapably omnipresent in North Indian cuisine. You'll find them stuffed in samosas: accompanied by bhature, a puffy, stretchy bread; or dressed in onions and yogurt as a street snack. We Krishnas enjoy our chickpeas as a thick, tomato-y stew -- but my mom doesn't make it too often, as dry chickpeas take a very long time to cook. Enter: this shortcut recipe, which my mom emailed to me during a particularly cold and sad winter when I was in college. With canned chickpeas, a few strategic whole spices (don't skip the cinnamon stick!), and yogurt to thicken the broth, this stew somehow manages the richness and complexity of a dish that's been cooking for hours. The first time I made this, I had just broken my wrist ice skating and was wearing a cast. The turmeric got all up in the fabric of the sweaty cast, and my hand ended up smelling like burnt garbage for a full month. But for this chhole -- it was totally worth it!

Steps:
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the cumin seeds and fenugreek and cook, stirring, until they turn a medium shade of brown, no more than 30 seconds. Add the turmeric, cloves, and cinnamon stick and cook for another minute, until the turmeric has mostly dissolved into the oil and the spices become very fragrant. Toss in the onion and ginger and saute until the onion is translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Increase the heat to high, add the tomatoes, and cook until they have fully wilted, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the chickpeas, lime juice, yogurt, and salt. Use a potato masher or the back of a fork to mash the chickpeas slightly so they become incorporated with the sauce (but don't go too crazy -- you want to leave the chickpeas relatively intact). Cook, uncovered, until the chickpeas have taken on a soft, baked potato-like texture, 20 to 25 minutes. Taste and adjust the salt if needed. Garnish with the cilantro before serving.

SPICED CHICKPEA STEW WITH COCONUT AND TURMERIC
Spiced chickpeas are crisped in olive oil, then simmered in a garlicky coconut milk for an insanely creamy, basically-good-for-you stew that evokes stews found in South India and parts of the Caribbean. While the chickpeas alone would be good as a side dish, they are further simmered with stock, bolstered with dark, leafy greens of your choosing and finished with a handful of fresh mint. When shopping, be sure to avoid low-fat coconut milk, coconut milk meant for drinking or cream of coconut: All are very different and would not be suitable here.

Steps:
- Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large pot over medium. Add garlic, onion and ginger. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally until onion is translucent and starts to brown a little at the edges, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add 1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric, 1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes, and the chickpeas, and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, so the chickpeas sizzle and fry a bit in the spices and oil, until they've started to break down and get a little browned and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove about a cup of chickpeas and set aside for garnish.
- Using a wooden spoon or spatula, further crush the remaining chickpeas slightly to release their starchy insides. (This will help thicken the stew.) Add coconut milk and stock, and season with salt and pepper.
- Bring to a simmer, scraping up any bits that have formed on the bottom of the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until stew has thickened, 30 to 35 minutes. (Taste a chickpea or two, not just the liquid, to make sure they have simmered long enough to be as delicious as possible.) If after 30 to 35 minutes, you want the stew a bit thicker, keep simmering until you've reached your desired consistency. Determining perfect stew thickness is a personal journey!
- Add greens and stir, making sure they're submerged in the liquid. Cook until they wilt and soften, 3 to 7 minutes, depending on what you're using. (Swiss chard and spinach will wilt and soften much faster than kale or collard greens.) Season again with salt and pepper.
- Divide among bowls and top with mint, reserved chickpeas, a sprinkle of red-pepper flakes and a good drizzle of olive oil. Serve alongside yogurt and toasted pita if using; dust the yogurt with turmeric if you'd like.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the onions over a low heat for 10 mins until starting to brown. Add 3 tsp of the cumin, the ginger, garlic and curry powder. Stir for a minute to keep the spices from burning.
- Tip in the chickpeas and the liquid from the can, along with the tomato purée, 20g of the coriander and some seasoning. Simmer over a low heat for about 10 mins. Add a splash of water if it looks too dry.
- Meanwhile, rinse and drain the rice, add the remaining 1 tsp cumin seeds, 2 litres of boiling water and seasoning. Cook for about 10 mins, or until the rice is tender. Drain.
- For the raita, grate the cucumber and stir it into the yogurt with the cumin, mint and the remaining coriander. Season, scatter over the pomegranate seeds, then serve alongside the chole and rice.
