Let the pressure come off. Discard the spices and dried Amla and keep aside. Chop ginger in long strips.
Cut potatoes in cubes and deep fry them.
Add roasted masala to the boiled chickpeas and mix well. Add some water if needed.
Cook covered over low heat for 7-8 minutes. Add fried potatoes cubes.Turn off the heat and set aside.
