About Chole Bhature
Spicy chickpea curry served with a puffed, deep-fried bread. A heavy brunch tradition in Delhi and Punjab. The bhatura puffs up in seconds in hot oil. The chole is darkened with tea bags or dried pomegranate powder. Delhi restaurants serve it with pickled onion and green chili on the side.
