Add chili powder, cumin, coriander and garam masala and stir a minute more. Add stock, tomatoes, tomato sauce and sriracha. Reduce heat a bit to simmer and thicken.
Add chickpeas to a food processor and coarsely chop, 5 to 7 pulses. Add chickpeas to chili.
If serving naan, preheat griddle to medium-high, sprinkle with water and cook bread until blistered. Brush with melted butter if desired.
Adjust seasonings for the chili and stir in mango chutney if using. Serve with yogurt or sour cream, scallions or chives, pickled jalapeno peppers and any optional toppings.
