A real feast for taste buds. A perfect side dish or a yummy healthy snack/starters.
Its evening tea time, the sun’s going down ..it just feels like the perfect time to spice up my taste buds. Chai accompanied with chaats is a treat for the eyes . One of the chaat that I have tried today is simple aloo tikki – Potato fritters replacing the amchur powder with fresh raw mangoes…. Yes mangoes my favourite..
In India chaats are comfort food for all. Anywhere – anytime is chaat time.. I remember the chaatwala near my house, the tikkis are always heating up on the tawa . It just keeps getting crispier and crispier. It is served with a chana gravy which tastes spicy-tangy-sour , this is then topped with some raw onions, coriander, a green chutney which is hot , a red chutney which is sweet and finally topped with crunchy sev.. This aloo tikki chaat definitely blasts in the mouth.
I have made a drier and plain version of this chaat. Check out my simple recipe of Potato fritters. I have avoided deep frying it. Just shallow fried it on a low heat for some time to get its colour and crispyness 🙂
