Chickpea/gram flour or besan is a very versatile flour. Cooked in any of hundreds of ways in India, it can become a sweet (Besan Ki Barfi, Mohanthal, halwa, laddus or Mysore Pak) or a sabzi ka curry or a snack (dhokla, sev, chakli, gathiya, papad, muthiya, kothambir vadi, pakoras) or a breakfast (lapta) or a gravy (kadhi, pithla) or a thickener for a vegetable dish or a bread (thepla, chila).

Gluten free, it has slightly more fibre than wheat flour and more protein too according to Healthline.

Gatte Ki Sabzi utilises the flour to turn it into bullet-shaped dumplings that are simmered in a yoghurt base that make for a great accompaniment for piping hot rotis or rice.
