Whenever we talk about Punjabi food, the first dish that comes to our mind is Chola Kulcha. Chola is a spicy curry made of Kabuli Chana or Kala Chana, where Kulcha is a bread which is made of Maida or Whole Wheat Flour. Different parts of North Indian make these Chola Curries differently, while the Kulchas can be plain or can be stuffed with Potatoes, Paneer, Cauliflower, Green Peas etc.
