Method

Soak the chickpeas overnight. Rinse and wash it the next day, add enough water, salt and pressure cook for 2-3 whistles. The chickpeas should not be mushy, but should be soft. Drain the water and keep the chickpeas aside.

Heat oil in a kadai, add mustard seeds after it splutters add urad dhal, red chillies, asafoetida and curry leaves, sauté until the urad dhal turns golden brown.

Add the chickpeas/kondakadalai and sauté for about a min. Now add the grated coconut and sauté for another 2 -3 min and switch off the stove.

Adjust the needed salt at this point; be careful because we have already added salt when cooking the chickpeas.
