Camp tips

  • • This is a basic chickpea curry/soup. But, you can make its variations with bitter gourd , pakora , spinach , and more.
  • • Best served when hot.
  • • This sweet yogurt curry is popular in Gujarat but in northern India, it is considered too sweet. So, prepare a variation depending on your guests' preference for spice.
  • • Keep perishables at 40°F (4°C) or below in a monitored cooler. Discard food left above that temperature for over 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F (32°C). Use potable water, wash hands, and pack out scraps. Never cook inside a tent. Check local fire restrictions.
