Samosa Chaat
Samosas are great but samosa chaat is truly something else. Samosas are slightly smashed and broken, and served with chole (chana masala) and a sweet, spicy, tangy, and crispy array of toppings. (Timing doesn't include chole.)
Ingredients
Samosa chaat
- 8 samosas
- cilantro chutney (see below)
- tamarind chutney
- vegan raita (see below)
- ½ red onion, chopped
- ½ cup cilantro, chopped
- sev, for topping
- pinch of chaat masala *optional
- 1 recipe of chole (chana masala) *linked in notes
Cilantro chutney
- 1.5 cups fresh cilantro (~ 1 bunch)
- 1 green chili or to taste
- 1 inch ginger

Vegan raita
- 1 cup plant-based yogurt
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 1 tsp ground cumin

Instructions
- Process all the ingredients for the green chutney in a small food processor. Add a little water at a time until it is mostly smooth.
