Murgh Cholay Masala Powder | Homemade Seasoning Blend | How to Make Cholay Masala with step-by-step photos
Murgh Cholay Masala is an aromatic and flavoured blend of different spices that helps to enhance the taste of murgh cholay. I tried a lot to make the perfect spice for this recipe, but unfortunately, every time I had to face an unsuccessful attempt and couldn't bring its actual flavour and taste.
Then one day I thought, why don't I add black salt instead of salt, so I acted upon my thinking and then again tried to trust myself, which I had not been getting for a long time despite trying a lot; this time I achieved it easily just due to skipping the regular salt from this recipe.
Then I realized not achieving actual flavour was due to the sharpness of the salt. One more experience I got is that I should not use regular salt in chana, whether we are making it from chana; remember, always, perfection comes from practice and experience; you can't get experience without experiments.
Additionally, this spice can be used in many recipes which are related to cholay (chickpeas)such as cholay ande chikar cholay,cholay aloo etc, I am preparing murgh chole masala powder for 2-3 kg chicken and chickpeas you can use as needed or to taste, this is my own version rarely you could found in the market, I cooked cholay from this spice amazing taste and flavour that's why now I am sharing with all :)
