    Snip, pour, serve

    Lift it out with tongs, snip the notch and pour onto a plate.

Also works on a tava with ghee, an induction plate, even an open-fire chulha.

Serve hot with phulka, jeera rice or a wedge of lemon.

"My mother-in-law approved."

She is the toughest critic of all things chole. She had two helpings and asked which dhaba I'd ordered from. Anardana note is exactly right. Game over.

"Better than the canteen."

I carry this to office now. Microwave for 90 seconds, eat with kulchas from the bakery downstairs. Beats canteen chole by a mile and costs almost the same.

"Goes brilliantly with bhature."

I have guests over for chole bhature most Sundays. I dont have time to soak chickpeas overnight anymore. This solves it without anyone noticing.

"Proper anardana tang"

Good Punjabi chole with that sour-spicy depth. I like it darker so I cook it down a bit. Bhature on weekend, sorted.

"Decent but needed salt"

Flavour base is right but I found it slightly under-salted for me. A pinch fixed it and then it was very good.

Questions, answered

Five things people ask.

Correct. Our retort pouch is sterilized at 121°C and sealed under nitrogen — the same technology the Indian army and ISRO use. Store at room temperature for 12 months. Refrigerate only after opening.

12 months from the manufacture date printed on the back of the pouch. Once opened

We won't say identical — fresh is fresh. But blind tastings put us within 90% of fresh undhiyu. The muthia is the trickiest part

Yes — fully sealed retort pouches are allowed in checked baggage internationally. Many of our NRI customers do exactly this.
