Note
Recipe Notes:1.You can add more spices if you want to make it spicier, but I love the mild version. Taste and adjust flavours according to your preference.
2. You can also add papri that will add extra crunch to the chaat which makes the whole experience more enjoyable. But for a low fat and healthy version, skip the papris and sev.
Serving Suggesstions:
Serve chana chaat along with Apricot chutney and Tamarind chutney (Imli ki chutney) .
