Instructions
1. Prepare the Chickpeas:
- Rinse and drain the soaked chickpeas.
- Cook the chickpeas in a large pot with sufficient water until tender. You can use a pressure cooker or stovetop for this step.
2. Make the Chole Curry:

- Add the cooked chickpeas and a portion of their cooking liquid. Mix in SitaVatika Sabzi Masala and simmer for 10-15 minutes, adjusting the consistency with additional water if needed.
- Season with salt and garnish with fresh coriander leaves for a vibrant finish.
3. Prepare the Bhature:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- Add the yogurt and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually incorporate warm water, kneading to form a soft, smooth dough.
