Chole Bhature


Namaskar🙏🙏

"I think that the invention of circle geometry started from Chole Bhature".

Bhature are basically the round and deep fried pooris made up of refined flour and curd dough.
These are rested for around one hour to 12 hours. In the olden days these breads were leavened by the wild yeast which is formed when the dough is kept outside for longer time in certain climate.
This process is called as 'Khameer Uthna'.
Chole is basically the chickpea preparation in which first the chickpeas are boiled alongwith teabags and then it is cooked alongwith masalas like fennel, cumin, coriander, red chilli powder and salt.
these Chole are called as 'Pindi Chole'. There are two meanings where firstly it is come from a place in Pakistan called as Pindi Chole and secondly in Punjabi Pind is called as a village.
Do try this mouthwatering Punjabi delicacy at home.
