[ASHOKA] Instant Punjabi Choley (280g)
A North Indian masterpiece in minutes! Ashoka Punjabi Choley is a hearty, ready-to-eat chickpea curry that brings the soul of a Punjabi dhaba (roadside eatery) to your home. This dish features tender chickpeas simmered in a dark, rich gravy flavored with a complex blend of roasted spices, pomegranate powder, and tangy mango. It is the gold standard of convenience without compromising on authentic, multi-layered flavors.
💡 Pro Tips for a "Dhaba" Experience
-
The Sizzle Garnish: While the pack is delicious as is, you can elevate it by tempering a little butter or ghee with ginger matchsticks and a slit green chili, then pouring it over the hot curry before serving. 🌶️🔥
-
The Perfect Pairing: For the most traditional experience, serve this with Bhature (fluffy fried bread) or Kulcha. If you want a lighter meal, it pairs beautifully with steamed Basmati rice and a side of sliced red onions soaked in lemon juice. 🍋🧅
-
The "Tiffin" Trick: This is a 100% "Heat & Eat" pouch. If you’re at the office or traveling, you can simply immerse the unopened foil pouch in boiling water for 3–5 minutes—no microwave or stove-cleaning required! 🎒🚿
🔬 The "Amritsari" Flavor Profile
What gives Ashoka’s Choley its signature deep color and tangy kick?
-
Pomegranate & Mango Powder: Unlike many curries that rely solely on tomatoes, Punjabi Choley uses Anardana (dried pomegranate) and Amchur (dry mango powder) to provide a unique, dark-hued tanginess and a hint of fruity earthiness.
-
The Spice Symphony: The gravy is infused with Black Salt, Carom Seeds (Ajwain), and Black Cardamom, which create a smoky, digestive-friendly, and deeply aromatic profile that thin powders can’t replicate.
-
Tender yet Firm: Ashoka uses a slow-cooking process that ensures the chickpeas are buttery-soft on the inside but hold their shape perfectly in the rich sauce.
-
Clean Label: This product is 100% Vegetarian, Vegan, and Gluten-Free, made with sunflower oil and no artificial preservatives or MSG.
