This is one of the favourite recipe for my kids. If we are visiting any south Indian restaurant this is must for them. They refuse to enter restaurant if Bhatura is not on menu. It is one of the popular Punjabi dish but famous across whole India. This is a very simple recipe and is without yeast too. Punjabi Chole is perfect side dish to go with it. I like to have with Pindi chole too.

Yogurt – 1/2 cup
