Mix the spice mix while the onions are cooking. Then add the chickpeas and spices into the pot with the onions. Stir for 1-2 minutes.
Add the potatoes, squash and about 500 ml water into the pot (or enough to cover everything). Bring to a boil on high heat. When it boils, turn to low, cover with a lid and simmer for 30-45 minutes until chickpeas are soft. (if using cooked chickpeas 30 minutes should be good)
Lastly, mix in about 1 tsp garam masala, cook briefly then turn of heat. (if it's too 'soupy' let it cook without the lid for a few minutes to let it thicken). Serve into bowls and top with a little plain yoghurt and maybe some fresh cilantro if you have.
