About
My personal tips to serve the chholey:
Make a tempering, so heat some oil, cumin seeds, asafoetida, sliced onion, few sliced capsicum, few long cut tomato and ginger juliennes, stir these for 4-5 minutes and lastly little red chilly powder.
The second tip is to add little sweet chutney to the
chholey when hot then serve..
