Kadala Curry

Kadala ( Chickpeas ) are a helpful source of zinc, folate and protein. They are of  two main kinds. One is called “Desi / Kala”, which is small and dark brown in color and the second one is called “Kabuli” which is  lighter in color and bigger in size. Desi chickpeas have a  higher fiber content than Kabuli and hence Desi chickpeas are good for people with blood sugar problems. Desi chickpeas are also known as “Kala Chana” or “Bengal gram”.
