Asafoetida is native to Iran . This spice is used as a digestive aid, in food as a condiment and in pickles . Can be found in online indian grocery stores . If can't get just totally omit dis .

Bengal gram or chana or garbanzo bean or chickpea is very popular cereal/legume in entire south Asia and relished as a staple food . In South Asia many tasty delicious culinary preparation are made from Bengal gram. It has healing power and can be bought in Europe and US too .
