Lahori Cholei ( Chick peas)

Lahori Chole, also known as Lahori Chickpeas, is a popular and flavorful North Indian and Pakistani dish that centers around chickpeas cooked in a rich and aromatic gravy. This dish is a testament to the culinary diversity and vibrancy of the region, with its bold flavors and hearty ingredients.

To prepare our Lahori Chole, we start with chickpeas that are soaked until tender and then cooked to perfection. The chickpeas are then simmered in a flavorful tomato-based gravy infused with a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, garam masala, and red chili powder.

One of the distinctive features of Lahori Chole is the use of anardana (pomegranate seed powder) and amchur (dried mango powder), which add a delightful tanginess to the dish. Additionally, it often includes ginger, garlic, and onions to enhance the depth of flavor.

The result is a hearty and wholesome dish that marries the nutty goodness of chickpeas with the zesty and aromatic flavors of the gravy. Lahori Chole is often enjoyed with Indian bread like bhature, roti, or naan, making it a satisfying and savory choice for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.
