Black eyed chick peas are called Karamani in Tamil and Lobia in Hindi. This is a legume, which is high in protein. Making this sundal is so easy, it does not require over night soaking. Just 2-3 hours in hot water will do.
Today, I made it like a salad. For a change, I skipped coconut.
Cooked Karamani added, after cooling down. Otherwise, there is a possibility of the Karamani getting mushy.
