Kitchens of India Pindi Chana – Chick Peas Curry, (Pack of 6)10 Ounces , Gourmet Ready To Eat Authentic Indian Dish (Pack of 6)

If you’re looking for something with tons of oil and spices dumped in it, because that’s what you’re supposed to have when you eat it mixed with a proper amount of otherwise relatively bland rice or bread, then this is it.I just made some Chana this way myself, not the pindi style specifically, but with the spices and oil “overdone” for better mixing with rice, and this pre-packaged version is as “concentrated” as what I had made for myself just by eyeballing and guessing.So for me this is dead on, but if you’re not eating this in a typical “Indian manner” with enough rice etc then you’re probably going to find it too “strong”. At absolute minimum this is made to eat 1:1 or 1:2 with rice etc.Excellent value for the money for the price when I bought it, especially if your kitchen is temporarily torn apart for repairs and you can’t cook like usual.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Way too oily, and mid flavoring.

I love Indian food. I frequent the Indian grocery store almost weekly. I was wanting some Indian cuisine that I could quickly heat up for my family without having to go to a lot of work. The "Kitchens of India Ready to Eat Pindi Chana" is great taste-wise and labor-wise. I just opened the pouches and poured them into a saucepan to heat up. I poured it over rice since it's on the spicy side. It takes 2 pouches to give a family of 4 an adequate serving.Tastes delicious and I will be buying more of this. And it doesn't require refrigeration so it makes a great camping food or when the power might go off. I love foods that I can store in my Pantry for an extended period of time and that taste good too.

For the most part I really love this Pindi Chana. It has some heat to it, so it's not as bland as other heat-to-eat Chick Pea Curries from other brands. Price is decent, and availability is good. The (one) issue with this product is that the taste, and consistency will vary batch-to-batch (box to box). It comes in a package of six meals. In the current batch I have the consistency is very thick, with moderate spiciness. In recent orders (about every 6 to 8 weeks I buy it), it has been overly thin (like soup), or it has a significant amount of what looks like chili oil floating in it, or it has even seemed like it has less chick peas than usual, or... within a box of six, they are all the same. Box to box, not so much. But, I'm still buying it, so draw your own conclusions. I do like the new packaging.. they used to package with an extra printed cardboard insert bragging about how environmentally friendly they were. Hmmm.. extra printed material is not very environmentally friendly the way I look at it. The last few orders the packaging has changed to get rid of the extra cardboard and to put the curry into more easily heated packaging.

This stuff is sooooooo good!!! I was looking for vegetarian meal options that would be easy and quick. This fits the bill - heat in the microwave, pour over rice, and you have great Indian food!This is my second purchase, and I will definitely keep getting it.I highly recommend it for quick, easy meals that actually taste good!

A bit high on salt but otherwise very tasty and easy to prepare.

Fantastic 5 star product, like all the Kitchens of India foods. Unfortunately there is at least one BAIT AND SWITCH seller "Wesen Enterprises." DO NOT USE. Item was CLEARLY listed as a 6 pack. I ordered 3 for a total of 18. I RECEIVED A SINGLE PACKET so I was shorted SEVENTEEN. Item was on sale on Prime Day from multiple sellers at the same price. Now the item has gone back to the original price so increased $7/pack. Amazon and seller refuse to fulfill my original order.

Vegan. Natural. Kosher Pareve. Spicy. Tender chana [also known as chick peas or garbanzos] along with some pieces of aloo [potatoes] in a delightful & spicy vegetable gravy. Authentic flavor. Taste the 'kick' from real Indian green chilis. Let your adventurous taste buds travel to India without having to go there. Great with whole wheat pitas, organic basmati rice, or your favorite [Indian] bread. Made with chick peas, potatoes, onions, sunflower oil, tomatoes, spices, green chilis, salt, ginger, garlic, pomegranate seed powder, and tea leaves extract. 525 calories and 20g protein per package.
