I am posting my second recipe on the same day itself, as I cant cotroll myself to post it.
This is also a very known recipe and also one of the favourite snacks recipe for every indian.
Here I have done few experiment with the traditional method of preparing Chole Masaa/Chana Masala.I ll rather name it Vegetable Chole Masala.Let me share the recipe from my kitchen:
Preparation Time : 25 min
Ingredients: Vegetables like Bean,Tomato,Capcecum,Onion leaves etc.You can pick any other also.
2 onions finely chopped
5-6 cloves of garlic chopped
2 green chili finely chopped
1 big size tomato finely chopped
1 tbsp ginger paste
Salt to taste
Little bit of sugar
Everest Chole Masala (This is the main masala to make it perfect)
Procedure : First of all need to soak the chole overnite in a bowl,so that they can increase in size and also will be cooked properly.
Now take a KADAI/PAN as per your quantity.Heat the pan and put oil.You can put even ghee/butter.I generally prefer oil and butter/ghee at last phase.
After heating the oil first you can fry all the vegetables and keep them aside.
Now its time for the soaked chole.You need to put them in pressure cooker for 5-6 whistles so than they can be soft enough.Here better to add small salt,so that some salt ll enter inside chole pieces.Now again preheat a pan and put oil.In the oil first add the chopped garlic,chilis,then onions and fry them till brown.After that add the boiled choles.You can keep aside the water from the cooker which is used for chole boil,which we can use for gravy preparation.
Now keep the heat medium and stire the choles with onions and ther stuffs properly so that they can be fried altogether.Afetr that you add garlic paste,chopped tomato s and finally Everest masala.Need to add a bit salt also as per taste. Now stire them properly in a bit heating condition so that everything mixes properly.Then its time to add the vegetables and the rest of water kept aside.
Need to cover the pan and keep it for 10 min in a slow heat so that masala and vegetables mixes properly.By the time we can feel the chole masala aroma spreaded everywhere in my kitchen.
After 10 mins just need to add small sugar as per taste and butter to enhance the taste.Thats it for the preparation,just need to cook for 5 min more and it ready to eat.
You can then garnish it with tomato,coriander leaves or curry leaves as per your choice.
Generally we prefer chole with bhatura/luchi in the evening times,than morning.My hubby and me enjoyed a lot mainly on week ends with some cool drinks and cucumbers salad.
You can try this simple recipe at home only,No need to depend on the roadside vendors for chole masa as they do not maintain healty parameters while preparring these foods.
