Samosa chole




Kailash Parbhat also has the best samosa chole in Bombay. Samosas are crispy turnovers stuffed with spicy potato and peas. Chole is made from chickpeas simmered in and onion and tomato curry with lots of Indian spices. Samosas are usually dipped in coriander chutney or tomato ketchup but chole makes an excellent and hearty accompaniment to make samosa chole a perfect mini lunch.

You can also make a yummy street food called samosa chaat using the samosa and chole by cutting the samosas into small pieces and then adding a bit of chole, some sev (puffed rice), raw onions, tomatoes, coriander, tamarind chutney, salt and lime juice. Yum!

aaloo mutter samosa is one of my favourite snacks.in mumbai only in a few places do you get the right spiced ones.kailash parbat is one of them.in the old days,i used to buy samosas from an old man in sindhi colony in chembur.it was always the right combination of veg and masala.poor guy is no more.the equivalent of samosa is shingara in bengal.i never miss having those when i am in kolkata.
