Gather @all-purpose flour{300%g}, @ground turmeric{1%tsp}, @dry yeast{1%tsp}, @chickpea{2%can}, @ground cumin{1%tsp} and @sunflower oil{500%ml}.

Make the bara dough: flour, turmeric, yeast, salt and warm water into a soft, sticky dough; rest 1 hour. ~{1%hours}

Simmer chickpeas with toasted @curry powder{2%tbsp}, @garlic{4%clove}, cumin and @scotch bonnet{0.5} until soft and saucy, mashing a few. ~{20%minutes}

With oiled hands, flatten small dough balls into thin rounds and fry each a few seconds per side — they should puff and stay soft.

Layer two baras, spoon on channa, and finish with @cucumber{1} chutney and pepper sauce.

Eat immediately, over the wrapper, leaning forward. There is no elegant way and there shouldn't be.
