About Channa kofta

Channa Kofta is a flavorful vegetarian dish rooted in Indian cuisine, combining chickpeas (channa) and aromatic spices to create soft, protein-packed dumplings, or koftas. These koftas are typically served in a rich, spiced tomato-based curry. Ingredients often include chickpeas, onion, garlic, ginger, garam masala, turmeric, and coriander for the dumplings, and tomatoes, cream, and yogurt for the curry. Chickpeas are a great source of plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like iron and folate, making this dish a nourishing option. However, the curry may be high in calories or saturated fat due to the cream or yogurt, depending on preparation. Traditionally enjoyed with rice or flatbread, Channa Kofta offers a balanced mix of carbohydrates and protein. Opting for lighter versions of the curry can make this dish healthier while preserving its authentic flavor.
