Ingredients

Servings
  • 250 g chickpea ~1 small can, pre-boiled
  • 1 tomato diced, small
  • 1 onion diced, small
  • 3 tablespoon cilantro chopped, fresh
  • 3 tablespoon mint chopped, fresh
  • 1 teaspoon chaat masala plus extra for sprinkling
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder

Sweetened Yogut

  • ½ cup yogurt whisked, 200g
  • 2-3 tablespoon white sugar
  • ¼ cup water

Mint Chutney

  • ½ cup mint fresh
  • ¼ cup cilantro fresh
  • 1 green chili small
  • pinch salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin seeds roasted and crushed
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice

Imli Chutney

  • 100 g tamarind preferably seedless
  • 1 cup water
  • ¼ cup jaggery (gur)
  • ½ teaspoon red chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon cumin seeds roasted and crushed

Assembly

  • sev or papri
  • chaat masala
  • 2 tablespoon onion diced
  • 2 tablespoon tomato diced
  • 1 tablespoon mint chopped, fresh
  • 1 tablespoon cilantro chopped, fresh

Instructions

  1. In a small blender add all the ingredients of the Mint Chutney and blend till smooth. Keep aside.
  2. Boil the water and turn off heat. Put the tamarind in it, along with the rest of the ingredients and cover for 15-20 minutes. When the tamarind separates and is soft blend everything together into a smooth chutney. If your tamarind has seeds remove those first before blending.
  3. Mix the yogurt, water and sugar. Keep aside.
  4. In the boiled chickpeas add onion, tomato, mint, cilantro, chaat masala, cumin powder, salt and red chili powder. Mix well and put aside.
  5. Take a big bowl (or individual jars for party serving).
  6. Add some sweetened yogurt sparingly to the bottom of your serving bowl, put the chickpeas mixture, pour some more yogurt, drizzle the mint and imli chutney.
  7. Garnish with diced onions, tomatoes, mint, cilantro and sev (or papri).
  8. Sprinkle some chaat masala and serve immediately.

Notes

  • An alternative, quicker way of making Imli Chutney is to mix 1 tablespoon imli concentrate with ¼ cup water, 2 teaspoon brown sugar and ½ teaspoon cumin powder.
