Chhole Bhature

 

This food history and culture of eating together gave rise to the concept of street food, bringing people together to enjoy finger-licking appetizing food.
One of the most common street foods in India, perhaps as popular as Beyoncé,  is Chole Bhature.
Chhole bhature also known as Chana Bhatura  is one of the most popular all over India. Chole stands for a spiced tangy chickpea curry and Bhatura is soft and fluffy fried leavened bread. Chana Bhatura is a spicy, tasty and a filling dish. I have eaten this dish many time in Panjab and Kanpur. Every Dhaba and restaurants have their own flavors and taste in the chickpea curry. In some places ,it has tangy taste and the consistency of curry also varies from slightly thick to semi-dry and try. In last 20 year Chole bhature has travelled across India as much loved dish. Out side India also famous this dish.
Chhole Bhature also loved in other country.
