But if you let the tomatoes and onions cook really well and then simmer the chickpeas with the spices for a longer time, the taste would be much much better.<\/li>\n<li>Chole masala actually tastes the best 1 day after you make it because the spices are then better incorporated into the chickpeas.<\/li>\n<li>Chole freezes well.
