Whisk the Greek yogurt, olive oil, lime juice (or vinegar), garlic, cumin powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Add the chickpeas, cucumber, onion, cilantro, and toss the salad to combine. Adjust the seasoning at this stage.
This chana salad recipe is best enjoyed after sitting in the refrigerator for at-least 1-2 hours.

You can add hearty veggies of your choice like boiled sweet potatoes, bell pepper, avocado.
You can also replace cilantro with dill leaves, mint, or parsley.
If you have sour cream at home, try replacing 2 tablespoons of greek yogurt with sour cream.
If you don't have greek yogurt at home, take regular yogurt and pour it in a muslin cloth and drain the whey for 30 minutes above the kitchen sink.
