    1       tb           Tamarind paste
      1/2   c            Light vegetable oil
    1 1/2   c            Thinly sliced onions

   add the tomatoes & ginger.  Cook for about 5 minutes

   Cover & simmer gently for 15 minutes.  Add chick peas,
   garam masala & cumin.  Cook for 10 minutes.  Check for
   salt.  Serve garnished with onion slices & shredded
   green chilies.  Serve with Poori.
