For the next day of cooking from my bookmarked recipes, I picked up Vaishali's Dhabe de Chole. This recipe is supposed to the Punjabi Dhaba style of making Chhole. I have always been obsessed with Punjabi food, more-so with Dhaba dishes. So the moment I read that it was Dhaba style, I had to make it.
Since most of our Sunday Breakfast is Poori Channa, I thought it would be a good thing to change the channa and see if the kids like. It was a super duper hit and kids enjoyed their meal. I was so happy that I was including yet another chhole recipe to my collection! Vaishali says she got this from her Punjabi friend's mom, so its authentic recipe and not much of a fuss in making it.

If you are fond of chhole, then you must try this.
While I was making this, Veena pinged me asking for my chhole recipe links. She said she wanted to make for fourth week. I was grinning and told her that its funny that I should be also be trying a channa recipe from Vaishali and she was doing from mine!
Well back to the recipe, you make and enjoy with pooris!
