Home made chole masala powder recipe | punjabi Chana Masala Powder Recipe |how to make cholay masala powder at home

   Today I am going to post recipe for home made chole masala powder .My advice try it    once   & u will forget the store bought masalas. 

Last week I made punjabi chole again in my kitchen but this time with home made chole masala /Chana masala along with tandoori roti  .

I enjoyed the taste of this Chole masala with freshly ground masala which makes it really delicious.

Truly I felt the  magic of freshly ground spices which  add a  magical touch to your chana masala rather than store bought chana masala & the end resukt is mouth watering yummy aromatic chole masala.Nothing beats the aroma and fresh flavour of homemade spices.

Channa Masala enhances the taste of Chole Recipe. You can easily find Channa Masala at the grocery stores in your locality, but you can try making at home only.Home made Chana Masala Powder obviously makes the recipe more tempting and tasty than market available masala.
