About Choley

Choley, a traditional North Indian dish, is a flavorful curry made from chickpeas cooked with onions, tomatoes, and a blend of aromatic spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala. Often served with bread like naan or puri, it’s a popular vegetarian option rich in protein, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients like folate, iron, and magnesium from the chickpeas. The addition of spices provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits. While Choley is nutritious, its healthiness can vary depending on preparation methods—excess oil or cream can add to its calorie count. Pairing it with less refined grains or steamed accompaniments further enhances its nutritional profile. Choley embodies the hearty, complex flavors of Indian cuisine and is enjoyed by many for both its taste and its nourishing qualities.
