Pindi Chana (Chick Peas Curry)

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.

The food is great and I had bought this before. But the size was misleading, so it ended up being ridiculously expensive. It used to be a six pack and advertised as such. Then the description changed but it was still a six pack. So, I was quite surprised and annoyed to see only 1 arrive (instead of 6).

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.

I am a single guy in his mid-20's and I buy Kitchens of India curry because it is a tremendously quick, easy dinner idea. The taste of the curry is about on par with Chili con Carne from the can and is of relatively the same quality. Nothing to give five stars over as for the price it is not even that good of a deal. This item, in my opinion, is extremely over-hyped. Don't get me wrong, not a bad food option, just not a five-star food product.

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

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!

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

What a great find for vegans (and non-vegans, too)! I can't tell you how many hours I spend squinting at labels, in search of food choices that are a) vegan; b) free of artificial ingredients; and c) convenient (including non-perishable). Oh, and d) tasty. I travel a lot and need food that I can bring with me in case I don't have other options. The Kitchens of India Pindi Chana / Curry Chick Peas is the single best solution to my needs. It really is as good as many restaurant offerings, and all you have to do is pour it in to a dish an microwave (or not...I've actually eaten it at room temperature and it's fine!). I order in bulk, and eat it pretty regularly at home, plus I almost always throw a few in my suitcase (checked bag...) when I hit the road. I really do highly recommend this product!
