Hey guys how are you. I'm ashutosh kumar and I'm here as @ashubaba01. I'm from Firozabad district near Agra in Uttar Pradesh (INDIA).

Tomorrow I opened best of india community in my steemit account, here on steemit then I saw a contest which I running about your favourite indian food. As I'm a food lover (foodie) so I find it very interesting. I decided to write on it. So I am here to tell you about my favourite food and also tell you how it made. As you read the headline, you already knew that what dish it is.
Yes it's CHHOLE BHATOORE (छोले भटूरे).

When I read about contest of favourite food, it remembered about chhole bhatoore and that time my mouth was started watering. You can imagine how it is my favourite. So let's start.

What is Chhole Bhatoore

Basically it's a breakfast food but you can eat it any time like lunch and dinner. It's amazing.

Chhote and bhatoore are the two things. Chhote are the white and big chickpeas made with masala(spices) and bhatura is a poori made of white flour, we call it maida in hindi. And it is eat with onion salad cut in rings and with mango pickle. If we have lassi( skimmed milk) than it was amazing. Lassi is a hindi word and it is made of curd. And one more thing is chatni of green coriander and mint and also lemon and green chillies. If we have these all things it will be complete food. Here I share an image of chhole bhatoore below. If I eat it in breakfast, the whole day will amazing.

History of chhote bhatoore

First we discuss that, how chickpeas came india.
It was started from 1883 when De Candolle found the origin of chickpea from an area south of the Caucasus and Northern Persia. Another historian named vavilov designated two origin of chick pea, south-west asia and Mediterranean and another place Ethiopia. He notice that, like other grain lagumes, large seeded cultivars abound around the Mediterranean basin, whereas small-seeded cultivars were in the eastward. And large-seeded, cream coloured chickpeas came to india only two centuries ago.
