Super Fast Shaadi Wale Chole (Chickpea curry)
My friend Ajay shared this recipe with me - he calls it "Shaadi Wale Chole". At weddings, when you need to prepare large quantities of chole, chefs routinely use this recipe. It is very delicious, very fast and easy to make, and needs only about 10 minutes to prepare. I love eating this, it's a very different recipe from the traditional tomato gravy based chole and goes well with rice or chapatis.
Sometimes I make this chole in a large batch, so that we can eat them like chat the next day. Heat the chole, add chopped onions, green chilies, tomato, sev and cilantro, and some tamarind sauce, and you're good to go. Yum!
Ingredients:
Chole (Chickpeas) - 1/2 kg, soaked overnight and pressure cooked, or, just open 4 cans and rinse thoroughly.
Dry Masala:
(The following ingredients are to taste, you might have to experiment by adding a little at a time:)
Garam Masala
Chole Masala
Cumin Powder
Aamchur (Dry Mango Powder)
Salt
Red Chilli Powder
Tempering:
Boiling water - 1 cup
Vegetable Oil - 1 Tbsp
Grated Ginger - 2 tsp
Method:
In a large bowl, mix chole with all the dry masala ingredients. Pour the boiling water into the chole and mix well.
In a sauce pan, heat the vegetable oil and add the grated ginger, stir until ginger is done, takes under a minute. Pour onto the chole and stir well.
That's it, enjoy Shaadi Wale Chole :) You can store in the refrigerator for a few days if you like, it tastes even better the next day.
