Pound the garlic and ginger with a little salt in a mortar and pestle until a paste forms. Chop the tomatoes, rinse the chickpeas, and set aside hot water. Heat the oil and sauté the onion until soft. This takes about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger puree and fry briefly. Add the garam masala, a little chili, turmeric, and tomatoes, stir well, and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add a little water and stir frequently to prevent burning. Now add the rinsed chickpeas and dill. Season with salt and chili and sauté for about 8 minutes, until the dill is soft. Stir frequently and add a little water if needed. Tastes good on its own, but even better with rice or flatbread and raita.
