About Chola salan

Chola Salan is a flavorful curry hailing from Indian cuisine, particularly popular in North India and Pakistan. Made with chickpeas (chole) simmered in a rich, spiced tomato-based gravy, this dish incorporates ingredients like onions, garlic, ginger, and a blend of traditional spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, and garam masala. Often paired with rice or bread like naan or roti, it’s a hearty and satisfying meal. Nutritionally, Chola Salan shines as an excellent source of plant-based protein and dietary fiber, thanks to the chickpeas, which also aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar levels. The use of spices adds antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. However, the healthfulness can be impacted by added oils or cream, which may contribute to higher calorie and fat content. When prepared mindfully, it can be a nutrient-packed dish balancing taste and wellness.
