Instructions
Boil the potatoes in a pot of water until fully cooked, about 10-15 minutes. Once done, drain and let them cool. Peel and dice them into small cubes.

In the mixing bowl, add the cooked chickpeas and diced potatoes. Toss everything gently to mix.
Add the tamarind chutney and mint chutney to the bowl, and mix well to coat all ingredients.
Sprinkle the chaat masala, cumin powder, and salt over the mixture. Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the bowl, and toss everything together until well combined.
Transfer the mixture to a serving platter or individual bowls.
Top generously with sev for a crunchy texture.
Garnish with more fresh cilantro if desired and serve immediately to enjoy the crunch and fresh flavors.
