The Scoop:

To properly prepare and soak chickpeas for Sundale, follow these enchanting steps:

1. Soak Time: Rinse the chickpeas and soak them in water for at least 8 hours or better yet, soak them overnight. Soaking makes the chickpeas tender and easier to cook.
2. Drain and Rinse: After soaking, drain the water and rinse the chickpeas to remove any excess moisture.
3. Boiling: If the chickpeas are not tender after soaking, simply place them in a pot with water and boil until they soften. Alternatively, you can use a pressure cooker for a speedier cooking process.
4. Seasoning: Once the chickpeas are cooked, toss them with the vibrant, tantalizing flavors of mustard seeds, curry leaves, chilies, and coconut.
5. The Final Touch: For the pièce de résistance, temper the chickpeas with a sizzling mixture of oil, mustard seeds, and curry leaves to bring the flavors to their zenith.
