Re. lemon, the original recipe I adapted this from called for pomegranate, so you're definitely on the right track. The impetus behind me learning to make cholle is a little Indian lunch counter me and the boys at work habituate. Cholle is one of the staples. They make Samosa Cholle, which is two samosas smashed on a plate, smothered in cholle, two kinds of spicy chutney, grated daikon, fresh cilantro and chopped red onion. The other is Aloo Tikki Cholle, which is two potato patties fried on a grill, then smotthered in the same manner. They also make a rockin' Masala Dosa (a crispy pastry roll-up with potatoes and coconut chutney, served with sambar. And there's more. The main items on the menu are all less than $4 and are guaranteed to satisfy even the hungriest computer jockey. The only bad part is they're closed on Monday. So I'll have to figure out something else for lunch after my noon-hour pick-up hockey today. Hey Ben, glad this worked for you.

Tried out the recipe tonight and it was a delicious success. One addition I made was lemon, something that rounded out the tomato flavor nicely. I ate it with bread as suggested but felt like rice would also have been appropriate. Thanks for the idea and I'll be trying out the cilantro/chili garnish more often as well.
