General Tso’s Chickpeas – Chickpea recipe – Lunch, Dinner recipe – Vegan Side dish



I got attracted by this dish thro’ it’s name after that when I searched for recipe I found a lot of beautiful pics. I have bookmarked this for quite sometime. However i had lunch at one of vegan restaurant last week I saw this in the menu and ordered it .. It is quite different from regular Channa masala we do. it is done mostly with chinese spices. It is quite a good alternative. you can serve this with steamed rice or have it as starter as I do..
