Ingredients
- 300 g Chickpeas
- 1 medium Red onion
- 1 medium Tomato
- 1 small Cucumber
- 1 small Green chili
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Chaat masala
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by soaking the chickpeas overnight in a large bowl. Ensure they are covered with plenty of water as they will expand.
Step 2
The next day, drain the soaked chickpeas and transfer them to a pot. Cover with fresh water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for approximately 1 hour until the chickpeas are tender. You can also use canned chickpeas for convenience; drain and rinse them well before use.
Step 4
While the chickpeas are cooking, finely chop the red onion, tomato, cucumber, and green chili. Set aside these vegetables.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chickpeas, chopped onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, and green chili.
Step 6
Add lemon juice, cumin powder, chaat masala, salt, and black salt to the mixture. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 7
Finely chop cilantro and sprinkle it on top of the chaat. Gently toss the chaat again to distribute the cilantro evenly.
Step 8
Transfer the Sugar-Free Chana Chaat to a serving dish and enjoy it fresh as a snack or a side dish.
