Instructions

In a small bowl, combine the cooked chickpeas with the finely diced red onion.

Add a pinch of chaat masala (or a blend of cumin, coriander, and chili powder) and toss well to bloom the spices against the warm chickpeas.

Fold in the chopped fresh spinach until it just begins to wilt from the residual heat of the chickpeas.

Squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the mixture, ensuring the acid cuts through the earthiness of the legumes.

Finish by folding in the fresh coriander leaves.

Plate in a small bowl, garnishing with an extra sprinkle of chili powder if desired for heat. Serve immediately while the chickpeas are warm and the spinach retains its vibrant color.
