Why did the video got removed 🙁
Please share video. I need it urgently
Very spicy but extremely tasty. My 8 year old son Hrishikesh Sharma made it and our friends loved it. Easy to make. Took to post cricket match picnic.
This is like the best chole I have ever eaten . I did a slight modification to the receipt stated , I took about 2-3 spoons of cooked chole , mashed them up and added this along with the ginger garlic paste for a thicker consistency and that worked for me .
Thankyou for such wonderful recipes .
