Chole bhature (Punjabi: ਛੋਲੇ ਭਟੂਰੇ) is a combination of chole (spicy chick peas) and fried bread called bhatoora (made of maida flour).[1] It is mainly eaten in all the states in northern part of India.
It is a heavy breakfast which is generally accompanied with lassi. There are different varieties of bhature available in the market such as aloo bhatura (bhatura filled with boiled potato), paneer bhatura (bhatura filled with cottage cheese) etc. Chole bhature are served with onions and achar. This dish is very popular among students at various campuses across India.[citation needed]
It is also called Chola poori since the bhatoora resembles a poori.
