Notes

You can enjoy this ragda pettice with bread slice, soft buns, pav or as it is. This delicious gravy can be used as a side dish with chapati too. It would be advisable if you soak the chole overnight and then boil them next morning, in this way chole will become fluffy and soft. You can use chole masala or chana masala powder instead of garam masala powder.


Chef Tips:

  1. You can add boiled Chana Dal or Green Peas in mashed potatoes. Sometimes I do that for the variation of Aloo Patty.
  2. It is always good to shallow fry these Patties on hot tawa, instead of deep frying them in oil in pan. Because then Ragda Patties becomes too heavy and high in calories.
