PURE GROUNDED AND BLENDED SPICES
Chole masala is a blend of select spices used in the preparation of chick peas or kabuli chana. The spices included in chole masala may vary from family to family, brand to brand, but it typically contains bay leaf, mustard seeds, cumin, coriander seeds, cloves, red chillies, peppercorn, and anaardana (pomegranate seeds).
Commercial mixtures predominantly contain dried red chilli, dried garlic, ginger powder, sesame, mustard seeds, turmeric, coriander, bay leaves, star anise and fennel. They generally include more of the less expensive spices.
