You can make anardana by dehydrating pomegranate seeds. The old-fashioned way to do this was to place the seeds on a roof for about 15 days until the moisture evaporated. You can try this method, but be aware that it is rarely used these days for sanitary reasons. It is difficult to dry the seeds thoroughly while also protecting them from dust. Want to turn the seeds into juice? Simply put the seeds into a blender, and then strain the resulting juice with a cheesecloth.

Each home has its own recipe to make chole. Some make it with onions and garlic and some make it without. Some people add chole masala powder and some don’t. Some cook the soaked chole and then add them to the masala and some, like me, cook them all together. Vegetable Sides and accompaniments: Serve along with a vegetable side dish like bhindi or aloo gobi. Popular accompaniments include Indian yogurt dips like boondi or cucumber raita, and kachumber salad.Amla powder is another South Asian spice that provides sourness. It is not fruity like anardana but should still deliver a souring effect. Amla powder is quite bitter besides being sour, so you may need to add a fruity element to compensate. Heat ghee/oil for 30 seconds on Saute mode in the Instant Pot. Add bay leaf and chopped onions, and saute for 2 minutes (Pic 1).

Substitute amchur for lime juice. Amchur is dried mango powder, which is added for a tart flavor. If unavailable, add 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice towards the end.

Spice Powders– To flavor up the curry, you will need chole masala powder, coriander powder, Kashmiri red chilli powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder (jeera powder), and anardana powder (pomegranate seeds powder).

Although more research is needed in humans, it may also offer a similar set of benefits for those affected by sexual dysfunction as well. 2. Reduce Arthritis and Joint PainTamarind Concentrate: Traditionally, dried pomegranate powder, called anardana, is used, but that is hard to find sometimes and doesn't have a long shelf life. Tamarind concentrate is easily available and a great alternative. Look for it in the global section of grocery stores. Lemon or Lime Juice: Freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice can provide a tangy and citrusy flavor, which can be a suitable substitute for the tartness of anardana. Use it sparingly to avoid making your dish too sour.
