At a traditional Punjabi restaurant or get-together you can expect very large Bhatura being fried right there before your eyes in a huge kadhai. The term is most often used together with Chole as 'Chole-Bhatura'. The yeast free bhatura is a delicious fried Indian bread made with the same ingredients as its version with yeast.
