I had never cooked leeks before, but ended up with some in my kitchen because my husband bought them thinking they were gigantic spring onions. So, I tried your recipe and WE ALL LOVED IT! Thank you so much for sharing this with us
I don't Nisha's origins but in Bengal where I come from using few spices for tempering vegetables is common in most of our vegetable dishes. We would put Nigella seeds along with slit green chillies and salt in some vegetable dishes. No other spices at all.
@InspiredByEbonyLove - Try looking for Black Onion Seed ( that is what it is labelled as sometimes). This headnote spice is used frequently in Bengal ( India) with exactly the combination Nisha has used. Except we would use either slit green chillies or dried whole red chillies for tempering along with Nigella/black Onion seed.
What you're making looks very good. I'm in USA, though, and "headnote spice" doesn't mean anything here, and what you were calling fried dal as "chickpeas" looked more like lentils to me. I appreciate your efforts. But there may be some language differences to navigate. Thanks!
Shez doing it all wrong..turmeric is used in very tiny quantities...not spoonfulls...since leeks go well with continental food...best way to use leeks are in fried rices, soups and stir fried chicken...never ever do it the Indian way....if you want to make it Indian way add boiled potatoes along and lightly sprinkle spice powders bcoz leeks have their own strong flavour...never temper it with mustard or chana dal...
Sandi Small are you frickin kidding me she’s in her own kitchen not in a restaurant cooking for hundreds of people do what u want in your own home there’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with how she’s doing what she’s doing. So stupid
It's not indian way mam, you made it in your way because we won't put hard items in vegetable because we eat them with chapaties and if you wish to add spiced it then stir tumaric and chilli power with it otherwise they will wont give you taste and fregrence..
Hi Meenakshi, In Bengal (Kolkatta) we prepare our vegetables with Nigella seeds and do put in chana dal seeds as well. She did make a mistake calling it chick pea which they are not. @Nisha Katona.
Love the simple recipe! It really helps me to indianize western vegetables :)

I really enjoyed watching you cook- not my favourite veg- your video has inspired me to cook it!
Really honoured to have inspired you Asma!! happy cooking x
Kate Bush: You had a temper like nigella seed??!?
Ha! I like what you did there Tom!
I have never used nigella seeds but like them in samosa. Kate Bush track very apt.." Like my nigella seed"...
nigella seeds here-the main scent of the dish is given by the headnote spice
What is called leek in local market
Love your accent
Why only 3 spices? Are you soaking or thoroughly cooking the chana seeds before frying??

Nigella is the head note

I think she made a mistake when she said chick peas. I'm sure she meant chana dal.
What is head note spice - no idea so did not make it
