Thanks for being in touch, Angeline! I ran your question by Brandon just now, and he thinks the tomatoes were the problem. If the tomatoes are bland, it takes quite a bit of work to fix them — salt, sugar, and vinegar, likely. The brands we’ve used are Alta Cucina (from CA; hard to find, but amazing), Muir Glen organic, and San Marzano. Also, you may need more salt. Cheers!

I am falling in love with your books and your recipes. I tried making this recipe last weekend, I loved the technique of adding water and reducing it, over and over. I cooked the onions until they were almost burnt, avoiding the carbon. My version fell flat. What type of tomatoes/spices do you use? It is possible my spices were closer to pencil shavings.

Thank you for your time. Can’t wait for your new book.

Ten years later (!): still worth a thank you.
Haven’t been feeling well the past three days, but today I went for a walk and then made your chana masala when I got home. So very glad I did. THANK YOU.

Hope you are well,
Maartje

Used hot curry paste rather than Garam Masala, ground cardomon, started soaking chick peas yesterday. It is delicious and will be a regular at our house. It leaves a great smell in the house. My wife went out as I was cooking it and she said the aroma was magnificent when she returned home.

Since I don't know how to make it my mom's way, it is nice to have an alternative when I can't eat her food. Thanks!!
