Instructions

Step 1

Start by soaking the chickpea flour fritters (phulki) in water for about 2 hours so they soften up nicely.

Step 2

Once soaked, mix them with boiled chickpeas, potatoes, chopped tomato, onion, cabbage, and a good sprinkle of chaat masala.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together yogurt and a little water until smooth, then add this to the mixture as much as you like to get a creamy texture.

Step 4

Next, blend together mint leaves, coriander, green chilies, lemon juice, salt, cumin seeds, and some water until you have a smooth, fresh green chutney.

Step 5

Stir the chutney into your main mix for a burst of flavor.

Step 6

Finish by sprinkling some chili flakes on top for a little heat, then dig in and enjoy!
