Prep Time: 20 mins | Cook Time: 15 mins | Servings: 4-6
Ingredients:
1 cup mixed vegetables (such as potatoes, cauliflower, carrots, green beans)
1/2 cup chickpea flour (gram flour)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons tamarind chutney
1 tablespoon green chutney
1 cup yogurt
Chopped cilantro, for garnish
Sev (gram flour noodles) or crispy fried onions, for topping
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Preheat the oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully slide in the chickpea flour mixture to form small fritters. Fry until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
2. In a separate pan, sauté the mixed vegetables with a pinch of salt and cumin seeds until they are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
Pro Cooking Tips:
To get the perfect crunch in your fritters, make sure to not overcrowd the frying pan. Fry them in batches if needed.
Adjust the amount of tamarind chutney according to your desired level of tanginess.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve the vegetable chaat hot, garnished with chopped cilantro and a dollop of yogurt.
Offer it as an appetizer or snack at parties and gatherings.
