Prepare chana masala by coarsely grinding all the ingredients together in a grinder. Heat three tablespoons of oil in an iron kadai (lohe ki kadai) and add cumin seeds. When they begin to change colour, add onion and sauté till pink. Add ginger and garlic pastes, powdered chana masala, coriander powder, red chilli powder, turmeric powder and half of the cumin powder. Add boiled chana with cooking liquor, salt, garam masala powder and let it cook for five to six minutes. In another pan, heat two tablespoons of oil, add slit green chillies, remaining cumin powder and tomatoes. Cook for a minute and transfer the mixture into the kadai. Stir and allow it cook on low heat till almost dry. Serve hot.​
