Soak chickpeas overnight in water.

Drain and rinse chickpeas, then boil in fresh water until tender, about 1 hour.

Mash half of the chickpeas and leave the rest whole.

In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, turmeric, and salt.

Add water gradually to the flour mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Divide the dough into small balls and let rest for 15 minutes.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Flatten each dough ball into a disc and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

In a separate pan, sauté chopped onion, garlic, and pepper until fragrant.

Add mashed chickpeas and whole chickpeas to the pan, along with curry powder, and cook for 5 minutes.

Assemble by placing chickpea mixture between two fried discs and top with coconut chutney and cucumber.
