Punjabi Chole
It has been raining heavy from morning and we felt like eating something really spicy and hot.
We were thinking either to make Rajma or Chole. My mother said Chole will soak faster than Rajma. Hence we put Chole to soak only in the morning.My mother and I decided to make some Chole for dinner. Ingredients 1 Onion 1 tomato 2 cups of soaked Channa (garnbanzo beans) 2 tea spoon Punjabi chole masala 1 tea spoon Coriander powder 1 tea spoon Anardhana powder (optional) 1 tea spoon Chilli powder 1 tea spoon Jeera Oil 2 teas spoon 2 tea bags Salt to taste Onion and lemons to garnish Method Soak garbanzo beans for 4-5 hoursIn a pressure cooker add 2 tea bags,2 cups of water and soaked beans and give it 2-3 whistles to cook.In a pan add 2 tea spoon oil and Jeera and allow it to splutter.Add the cut onions, salt and let it become golden brown.Grind the tomato and add the tomato puree with the onion and allow it cookAdd the masala's (Chole masala,chilli powder,coriander powder,anardhana powder) and mix well.Once the oil start separating from the gravy,Add the cooked beans and also use the dark water in which the beans was cooked. Add everything and allow it to cook for 5 -10 minutes till it becomes thick.Garnish with cut onions and lemon.Serve hot with Roti or Batura. I will soon try out the masala at home and post the recipe. Tea bags are used to bring the dark color for punjabi chole. It gives a nice color and taste. related searches : Punjabi
