Chholey with a hint of Mint
This happened because I was too lazy to clean out my mixer after I had made some mint chutney for the bhelpoori I would be making the next day and I used it to make my onion paste for the chholey. I had no idea that it would turn out so good. So I made it again, this time paying attention to the measurements and taking a pic so that I could put it on the blog. I wish I had a better picture though. I had made it for lunch today and we had polished most of it off before I got a chance to click a pic.
