Black channa kurma is my all time favourite with chapathi/ roti. Black channa is rich in protein and fiber. This is really good for diabetics. This kurma is a easy version. It is made of basic coconut masala.
This recipe needs a little planning as you have to soak black channa overnight that is 8 - 10 hrs. Yesterday i did this kurma and i could not wait to post it.

Coconut - 1/2 cup
Chilly powder - 2 tsp
Cumin - 1 tsp
Coriander - 1 tsp
Ginger - 1 inch
Garlic - 2

2) Drain it and keep it aside.
3) Soak kasa kasa in 2 tbsp warm water for 10 mins before grinding coconut masala.
4) To grind, take coconut, chili powder, cumin, coriander, ginger, garlic, cashew and soaked kasa kasa in a blender and grind it to a fine paste.
5) Heat a heavy bottom pan. Add 3 tsp oil, once heat add mustard seeds, urud dhal.
6) Add chopped onions and cook well. Add a pinch of salt to cook onions evenly.
