# How to Make Chole Bhature
|
||||
|
||||
> Chole Bhature (छोले भटूरე) — Chickpea Curry with Fried Bread
|
||||
|
||||
Chole Bhature is one of the most popular classic street foods and breakfast items in North India, especially beloved in Delhi and Punjab. "Chole" refers to chickpeas stewed in a rich spice blend, while "Bhature" are soft, fluffy fried breads. Together, they offer a rich textural experience—the fluffiness of the bread complements the robust flavor of the chickpeas perfectly. Total time: approximately 50 minutes (chickpeas must be soaked for 8 hours in advance).

## Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
### Preparation (8 hours in advance)
|
||||
|
||||
- Soak the dried chickpeas in clean water overnight (at least 8 hours). They will expand to about twice their original volume after soaking.
|
||||
|
||||
### Cooking the Chickpeas
|
||||
|
||||
- Drain the soaked chickpeas.
|
||||
- Place them in a pot, add 500ml of water and 1 black tea bag (for coloring).
|
||||
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat. **Simmer for 25–30 minutes** until the *chickpeas can be easily crushed between your fingers*.
|
||||
- Remove the tea bag and reserve the chickpea cooking liquid for later use.
|
||||
|
||||
### Preparing the Curry Base
|
||||
|
||||
- Pour 30ml of cooking oil into a wok and heat over medium heat.
|
||||
- Add the chopped onions and sauté until *golden brown* (about 6-8 minutes).
|
||||
- Add the grated ginger and garlic, and sauté for 1 minute.
|
||||
- Add the chopped tomatoes and sauté until *the tomatoes are completely soft and release their oils* (about 5 minutes).
|
||||
- Add 3g of turmeric powder, 5g of red chili powder, 8g of coriander powder, 5g of cumin powder, and 6g of salt.
|
||||
- Sauté for 2 minutes to allow the spices to fully release their aroma.
|
||||
- Add the cooked chickpeas along with their cooking liquid to the pan.
|
||||
- Add green chilies and stir well.
|
||||
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and **simmer for 15-20 minutes**. During this time, you can use the back of a spatula to mash some of the chickpeas to thicken the sauce.
|
||||
- Add 5g of garam masala and 3g of pomegranate powder (or 15ml of lemon juice).
|
||||
- Stir well, then turn off the heat and set aside.
|
||||
|
||||
### Making the Purée Dough
|
||||
|
||||
- In a large bowl, mix 250g of all-purpose flour, 2g of baking soda, and 3g of salt.
|
||||
- Add 60ml of yogurt and 15ml of cooking oil.
|
||||
- Gradually add warm water while kneading until a *smooth and soft* dough forms (the dough should be slightly softer than usual).
|
||||
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for **30 minutes**.
|
||||
|
||||
### Frying the Purées
|
||||
|
||||
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions.
|
||||
- Take one portion, lightly oil your hands, and roll it out into a round flatbread about 15cm in diameter and 3mm thick.
|
||||
- Pour 500ml of cooking oil into a deep pot and heat over medium-high heat to approximately 180°C.
|
||||
- Gently slide the flatbread into the hot oil and press it lightly with a slotted spoon to help it *puff up*.
|
||||
- **Fry for 1-2 minutes**, flipping to fry until *golden brown on both sides*.
|
||||
- Remove from the oil and blot with paper towels to remove excess oil.
|
||||
|
||||
### Serving
|
||||
|
||||
- Reheat the chickpea curry.
|
||||
- Serve the purées hot, paired with the chickpea curry.
|
||||
- Optionally serve with sliced onions, green chilies, and lemon wedges.
|
||||
|
||||
## Additional Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Soaking the chickpeas beforehand is a mandatory step; otherwise, they will not soften properly. If time is short, you can use a pressure cooker to cook unsoaked chickpeas for 20 minutes.
|
||||
- The black tea bag is used to color the chickpeas, giving them a deep brown hue. This is a secret trick used in Indian restaurants.
|
||||
- The yogurt and baking soda in the purée dough are key to its soft and fluffy texture. The dough should not be too stiff.
|
||||
- This dish is a national favorite for brunch in India, available from street stalls to high-end restaurants. In Indian restaurants in China, it is often referred to as "Chickpea Curry with Purées."
