Ingredients

• 1 cup Chickpeas (cooked and drained)
• 1 medium Potato (boiled and diced)
• 1 small Onion (finely chopped)
• 1 small Tomato (chopped)
• 1 or to taste Green chili (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Tamarind chutney
• 2 tablespoons Green chutney
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Chaat masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Low-fat yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Sev (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by boiling the potato until it is tender, about 10 minutes. Once cooked, peel and dice into small cubes.

Step 2

Place the cooked chickpeas and diced potato into a mixing bowl.

Step 3

Add the chopped onion, tomato, green chili, and coriander leaves to the bowl, mixing well to combine ingredients.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the tamarind chutney, green chutney, and lemon juice.

Step 5

Drizzle the chutney mixture over the chickpea and potato mix, stirring gently to coat all pieces evenly.

Step 6

Sprinkle in the chaat masala, cumin powder, and salt, adjusting the seasoning based on taste preference.

Step 7

Add the low-fat yogurt into the mix, stirring gently to incorporate without breaking up the potatoes.

Step 8

To serve, transfer the chaat to a serving platter or individual bowls.

Step 9

Optionally, top with sev for an added crunch, though this can be omitted to keep the dish lower in fat.
