Chole bhature is an emotion. The crunchy and fluffy bhature combined with the spicy and sour chole (chickpea curry) causes a delicious explosion in your mouth. Not just Indians, but people from every part of the world love the iconic combo. Australian chef Sarah Todd echoes a similar sentiment. After arriving in Delhi a few days ago, she wanted to know if the North Indian cuisine could satiate her hunger pangs. Well, she was not disappointed. Sara shared a video on Instagram, in which she was seen trying a plate of chole bhature at the famous Sita Ram Diwan Chand restaurant. The clip begins with Sara tearing apart a bhature, dipping it in chole and popping it into her mouth. Her reaction was priceless. “Wow. This is so good.
She also paid attention to how they are made, and highlighted the delicious fillings. Sara enjoyed the meal with green chutney and green chillies. Taking a bite of the amla, she said, “It really goes really well with the dish.” Once she was done with the meal, the chef admitted that she was “officially satisfied (and) a happy girl”. Sara concluded her gastronomic adventure by gulping down a full glass of lassi. A sweet way to end a hearty meal indeed. Not sure what you think, but Sara completely agrees with us.
