One of the ultimate Delhi street food dishes is chole (or also known as channa), which is a chickpeas curry, eaten with fresh hot cooked chapatis.It didn't take me longer than about 10 minutes to get off the subway, unload my bag, and the very first Delhi street food stall I discovered, was one serving this wondrous combination of chole and chapatis. To find a similar stall, which are scattered all over the city, just search for the big golden pan that looks like it's turned on its side. Within the big metal golden pan, the vendors scoop out their delicious chole. Chole is a slow cooked curry made from chickpeas, a variety of spices, and probably some ghee, which is the clarified butter the enriches so many North Indian dishes.Since there was no real seating at this Delhi street food stand, the vendor kindly motioned for me to eat off the back of his bicycle, which doubled as both a mode of transporting his chole from place to place, and also as a standing table. I have to admit, this was the first time I have ever eaten street food off the back of a bicycle, and I was thrilled. My bowl of chole was served in a small paper bowl, and seasoned some spices and salt on top, along with a garnish of pickled chilies and coriander. The chapatis were so fresh, that they were piping hot, and hurt to even pick them up. I grabbed my first bite of chapati, dipped it into the chole, and could hardly contain myself with how delicious it was. This Delhi street food dish is not only common everywhere, but it's incredibly tasty. The chickpeas were spicy and creamy, rich and hearty. The spice from the extra chilies and the red onions made the flavors all the more better.The food was so good that I had to another couple dishes of chole and a few more hot fresh chapatis. I was thoroughly satisfied!Follow our food adventures at http://migrationology.com/ & http://www.eatingthaifood.com/ & http://travelbyying.com/Grab a copy of my Delhi travel guide here: http://migrationology.com/delhi-travel-guide-ebook/Bangkok 101 Guide: http://migrationology.com/ebook-101-things-to-do-in-bangkok/Thai Food Guide: http://www.eatingthaifood.com/eating-thai-food-guide/Finally, subscribe so you don't miss the next tasty adventure http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=migrationology
