Chole Bhature.....Ummm Sinful!!

If you ask me about Chole Bhature then I would say "Chalo Delhi". My fond memories of Nand di Hatti, Sadar Bazaar, New Delhi make me nostalgic. After school hours we would directly head to this small shop(then) and spend all our pocket-money to gorge on these lip smacking Chole Bhature :)....And when I cooked this delicacy, thankfully the feelings of my kids and hubby did not change once they started eating them - Chole, a perfect balance of sweet-sour-spice, still not going overboard.The Bhaturas are soft, even crispy.
