1 medium serrano pepper, cut into thirds

4 large cloves garlic

1 2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and coarsely chopped

1 medium yellow onion, chopped (1-inch)

6 tablespoons canola oil or grapeseed oil

2 teaspoons ground coriander

2 teaspoons ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

2.25 cups no-salt-added canned diced tomatoes with their juice (from a 28-ounce can)

3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

2 15-ounce cans chickpeas, rinsed

2 teaspoons garam masala

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Pulse serrano, garlic and ginger in a food processor until minced. Scrape down the sides and pulse again. Add onion; pulse until finely chopped, but not watery.

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add coriander, cumin and turmeric and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Pulse tomatoes in the food processor until finely chopped. Add to the pan along with salt. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes. Add chickpeas and garam masala, reduce heat to a gentle simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes more. Serve topped with cilantro, if desired.
