Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium (about 500g) potatoes
- 1 cup chickpeas (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 medium, finely chopped onion
- 1 medium, finely chopped tomato
- 0.5 cup, chopped fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 finely chopped (optional) green chili
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala

Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan over medium heat.
Add the diced potatoes to the pan and sauté for about 10-12 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once cooked, remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, chickpeas, finely chopped onion, and tomato.
Add the chopped cilantro and green chili, if using.
Sprinkle the chaat masala, ground cumin, red chili powder, and black salt over the mixture. Toss well to ensure the spices coat the ingredients evenly.
Drizzle the lemon juice and tamarind chutney over the potato mixture and mix everything thoroughly.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. You can add more chaat masala or lemon juice according to your taste preference.
Transfer the Aloo Chaat to a serving plate or individual bowls.
Top with sev for a crunchy texture just before serving.
Serve immediately as a tangy and spicy snack or appetizer.
