Bhatura is a deep-fried bread originating from the Indian subcontinent, commonly paired with chickpea curry (chole) in the popular dish known as Chole Bhature. Made primarily from refined wheat flour (maida), yogurt, and a leavening agent like baking soda, the dough is rolled and fried until golden and puffed. Its crisp exterior and soft, chewy interior make it a flavorful indulgence. While Bhatura is rich in carbs and energy due to its flour and frying process, it is relatively low on fiber and high in fat content, which may not be ideal for regular consumption. It provides instant energy but should be enjoyed in moderation, particularly by those mindful of calorie intake or cholesterol levels. This iconic bread is a celebration of North Indian cuisine, cherished for its versatility and ability to absorb the robust flavors of accompanying dishes.
