Chana Palak Masala is a delicious, vegan curry from Indian cuisine that combines chickpeas (Chana) and spinach (Palak) in an aromatic spice blend. This combination of legumes, vegetables, and intense flavors makes the dish a real treat. If you know me, you know that I love Indian cuisine and its diverse spices. I find it particularly exciting that many Indian dishes are naturally vegetarian or even vegan - an added bonus for me! Like many Indian recipes, Chana Palak Masala can be prepared in just one pan and is ready in no time. If that's not another argument for this aromatic dish!
