Ghugni looks nice..heard the name for the first time. We also make similar dish called "chan sabzi". It is esp served with sweet halwa or sweet pova on festivals.
Our ghugni (Bengali) is very different ... is made from dried peas and has gravy. I like this dry version of kala chana. :-)
When i was younger we only had black channa, it is in my teenage years we started using the white one.
Curry looks yumm.
I had never heard of ghungi before .. lovely memories there
I love Kala Chana. I make a sookha kala chana too but I like your way of doing everything in pressure cooker together
