ABOUT Spicy Chole Croquettes Burger with Veg Salad RECIPE

Croquettes is originated in France, is a small bread crumbed fried food roll containing, usually as main ingredients, mashed potatoes or ground meat (veal, beef, chicken, or turkey). The croquette is usually shaped into a cylinder, disk, or oval shape, and then deep-fried. The croquette (from the French croquer, "to crunch") gained worldwide popularity, both as a delicacy and as a fast food. Chole is the name for the larger and lighter coloured chickpea commonly found in the West. These are known as kabuli chana. In this recipe I have prepared spicy chole Croquettes and stuffed them in the burger served with vegetable salad and burger Mayo.
