CURRY CHANNA AND ALOO
Channa is also known as chickpeas, garbanzo beans or ceci beans. Aloo on the other hand is what we Trinidadians refer to potato. Hence the term channa and aloo. In this dish, channa and aloo are simmered in a fragrant curry sauce flavored with aromatics including cumin and fresh herbs.

Steps:
- Pick over chickpeas, remove any stones and debris and wash with several changes of water. Soak chickpeas in about 5 cups of water overnight. Drain.
- Add 8 cups of water and chickpeas to a saucepan and bring to boil over high heat. After it comes to a vigorous boil, reduce heat to medium. Continue cooking until fork tender but not mushy, about 20-25 minutes(could take longer on your stove). Strain, reserving liquid (produces about 5 cups of liquid).
- Grate or mince garlic. Mince culantro. Peel, wash and cut potatoes in quarters lengthwise, wash and roughly chop scallions and thyme. [chopped thyme sprigs are inedible and could be dangerous for kids. For this reason, I usually keep thyme whole and remove whole sprigs after cooking is complete.]
- Make curry paste. Mix curry, half of garlic(6 cloves), minced culantro (bandhania) and 1/2 cup water in a small bowl.
- Pour oil into a large heavy bottomed pot over high heat, heat. When hot, add methi, cook until it darkens. Add the onion and hot pepper, cook for 3 minutes. Add remainder of garlic and cook until the edges of the onion become golden brown.
- Add curry paste and cook until it darkens, becomes grainy and fragrant and separates from oil, about 3-5 minutes. At this point you can rinse the "curry paste" bowl with a little water{1 tablespoon} and add to pot.
- Add potatoes and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add chickpeas, scallion, thyme, remainder of minced culantro and salt. Cook about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent chickpeas and potatoes from sticking.
- Add reserved liquid and enough water to cover the chickpeas and potatoes, about 5-6 cups. Stir, scraping up the spices at the bottom of the pot.
- Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook, [stirring every 8 minutes and cutting potatoes in half using spoon], until potatoes are tender and sauce thickens (but not totally evaporated), about 40-60 minutes. [At the end of cooking, I mash about 4 pieces of potato with the back of the spoon to allow the sauce to thicken more rapidly]. If the chickpeas are not tender enough for your liking, continue to add two cups of water, in increments, until it's your desired texture. Some like it more firm than others. It helps to stir the pot repeatedly for about 5 minutes to bring it to the right consistency.
- Remove cover, stir in cumin and chopped culantro and cook for an additional 5 minutes until sauce thickens but is not totally evaporated.
- Rest for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow sauce to thicken further.

TRINI CHANA AND ALOO
This savory, herbal Trinidadian chickpea-and-potato curry is an island adaptation of a common north Indian dish. It comes from the Trini cooking teacher Dolly Sirju, who dislikes comparisons of Trinidadian food to Indian. "India is totally different than Trinidad," she says. This dish swaps out tomatoes, ginger and whole spices for Madras curry powder and waves of cilantro-like flavor. Serve it with steamed white rice or roti flatbread.

Steps:
- In a medium Dutch oven or heavy soup pot, add water to cover the chickpeas by 2 inches, and bring to a boil over high heat, skimming the foam, then lower to a simmer. Simmer for 45 to 60 minutes, until chickpeas are tender; drain, keeping the cooking water. (I like to use it later in the recipe; it's also a nice base for soups.)
- Meanwhile, purée the culantro and 1/3 cup water in a blender until smooth. Add a pinch of salt, the garlic and the chile. (Half a deseeded habanero will make the dish gently but noticeably hot. Adjust from there.) Blend until smooth. Stir the herb purée into the hot, drained chickpeas.
- Rinse and dry the pot. Peel the potato, and cut it into 3/4-inch chunks. In the pot, heat the oil over medium heat, add the curry powder and turmeric and stir, until very aromatic and just starting to darken. Carefully add the potatoes and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the chickpeas and cook, stirring, until you get a little sticking on the bottom of the pot, 3 to 5 minutes. Add a little water to scrape up the stuck parts, then add water to cover by 1/2 inch. (I use the chickpea cooking water, but Dolly Sirju prefers fresh water.) Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt.
- Bring the pot to a vigorous simmer, shy of a full boil, and cook until the potatoes are tender and the chickpeas are soft, about 30 minutes. Season with salt to taste. Chop some more culantro. Serve the curry with long grain white rice or roti, and garnish with chopped culantro.
