Prepare for the 30-minute challenge to make Chole Bhature without soaking chickpeas.

In a mixing bowl, combine 2-3 bowls of flour, 1 bowl of wheat flour, and some semolina (3-4 tablespoons) without measuring.

Add salt and about 0.5 to 1 teaspoon of baking powder to the flour mixture.

Mix in 3-4 tablespoons of sour yogurt and knead the dough, adding water gradually.

Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and let it rest aside.

In a separate bowl, soak chickpeas in warm water for about 30 minutes, adding 1 teaspoon of baking soda.

Prepare ginger-garlic-green chili paste (about half a bowl) and make a puree of 5-6 tomatoes and 4 onions.

In a pan, heat oil, add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds and 0.25-0.5 teaspoon of asafoetida.

Once the oil is hot, add the onion puree and sauté until browned.

Add the ginger-garlic-green chili paste to the browned onions and sauté for 30 seconds.

Stir in 0.5 to 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder and mix well.

Add the tomato puree to the pan and mix thoroughly, cooking until the mixture thickens and oil separates.

Cover the mixture and cook for 3-4 minutes until the water evaporates and oil releases.

Add the spices: kasuri methi, black salt, chole masala, dry amla, pomegranate powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and garam masala, all in equal quantities (about 1 teaspoon each).

Mix the spices in and add warm water to help the flavors develop, cooking for another 30 seconds.

Add the soaked chickpeas to the pan, ensuring not to use regular water but tea-infused water for color and flavor.

Season with salt and mix well before sealing the pressure cooker.

Cook for 4-5 whistles, then reduce the flame to medium-low and cook for an additional 5-8 minutes.

Check if the chickpeas are soft and mash some to thicken the gravy.

Prepare a tempering with ghee, cumin seeds, kasuri methi, fresh coriander, and ginger-garlic paste, adding 1 teaspoon of chole masala.

Pour the tempering over the chickpeas and cover for 5 minutes.
