Why is it called Chana Masala in some places? Chole Masala in others?

'Chana masala' and 'chole masala' are names that most people link to an Indian chickpea curry. However, the words people use for food vary by region.

  • Rajasthan and Hindi-speaking regions: Chana is a familiar name for chickpeas, so people commonly use terms such as chana masala and chana curry.
  • Punjab: 'Chole' or 'chhole' is the name used for Punjabi-style chickpea curry, especially chole dishes served with bhature.
  • Other regions and online searches: You may also come across spellings such as channa masala and chhola masala.

The names and recipes may vary, but they mostly refer to spice mixtures to prepare chickpea-based dishes. VAAHE Chhole Masala is designed for this style of cooking.

Chhole Masala Ingredients

The taste of a chhole curry is derived from the combination of spices used to make it. I can taste how each spice contributes to the overall taste of a good chhole curry.

VAAHE Chhole Masala ingredients include:

  • Cumin Powder
  • Roasted Coriander Powder
  • Black Pepper
  • Kashmiri Red Chilli Powder
  • Clove
  • Fennel Seeds
  • Cassia
  • Black Cardamom
  • Star Anise
  • Turmeric Powder
  • Kasuri Methi
  • Spice Mix

These ingredients contribute earthy, warm, aromatic and mildly spicy flavour notes to the blend. Check product packaging for the most accurate ingredient and allergen information.
