Sort and clean chickpeas
and wash them under cold water; drain. Combine chickpeas, 1/2 teaspoon salt,
and baking soda in a large bowl; add 1 quart water. Soak chickpeas for 24
hours; drain.
Combine onion, garlic,
and ginger in a blender; add 3 tablespoons water. Blend mixture at high speed
until a smooth paste forms.
Heat vegetable oil in a
4-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and asafoetida; cook and
stir until asafoetida expands and cumin seeds darken, about 1 minute. Stir
onion paste into cumin mixture, taking great care to avoid splattering. Cook
and stir mixture until well mixed and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Stir chickpeas,
potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, coriander, garam masala, turmeric, and cayenne
pepper into onion-cumin mixture; add 2 cups water. Bring liquid to a boil and
cover pot; reduce heat and gently simmer for 1 hour. Stir tamarind paste into
chickpea mixture; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes more.
