Delhi wale choley is a new name given by me to matara or Vatana or dried white peas. In Delhi the street vendors sell choley kulche at various corners of the city. They name it Choley but actually they are not choley or chickpeas, instead they are Vatana/Matara/dried white peas.They go well with Paranthas or Kulchas.

I make these choley or matara often at home usually with Paranthas.This time I made them with Punjabi Stuffed Kulchas.

Here is the recipe
