Chana Masala!

We get cravings for Indian food quite often, and we talk about going out and getting some. Then we realize that we're broke. This is our delicious version of Chana Masala!

Ingredients:
2 Servings of basmati rice (about 1 cup dry)
2 Tbsp. Margarine
1-15 oz. Can of chick peas, drained and rinsed
1 Small roma tomato, diced
1/2 Red onion, diced
1 Clove of garlic, minced
1/2 Cup water
1/2 Tbsp. Coriander
1 Tsp. Cumin powder
1/4 Tsp. Cayenne powder
1/2 Tsp. Turmeric
1 Tsp. Paprika
1/2 Tsp. Garam Masala
1/2 Tsp. Salt
1 Tsp. Ginger
Squeeze of Lemon juice

Instructions:
Get the rice going in the rice cooker, or your preferred method.
Melt the margarine in a nice deep sauce pan over medium heat. Once the margarine is melted, add the diced onion and begin to saute until they start to brown, about 4-5 minutes. Next, add the garlic and cook it up for about another minute.
Mix all the spices together in a small bowl, and add them to the onions and garlic, along with the diced tomato. The mixture will get a little thick, saute for about 3 minutes, and add the 1/2 cup of water with the chickpeas.
Bring the mixture to a boil. Once it hits a boil, hit it with some lemon juice, reduce the heat, and cover and simmer for about 10 minutes.
Once it's been 10 minutes, uncover and it should have gotten thicker.
Serve over a nice hot bed of rice and enjoy!
Its nice and tasty but not too spicy!
