For Chickpea Curry (Chole)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 large red onion chopped
- 3 garlic cloves sliced
- 1 inch ginger chopped, substitute 1 teaspoon frozen or minced ginger
- 1 dried green chili chopped
- ¼ teaspoon Turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 cup pureed plum tomatoes

- 14 ounces chickpeas rinsed and drained
- 1 ½ cup hot water
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
For Chaat

- 4 samosas homemade or store bought
- 1 tablespoon cilantro chutney see notes for substitutes
- 1 tablespoon sweet tamarind chutney see notes for substitutes
- 1 teaspoon red onion thin slices
- 1 teaspoon cilantro leaves chopped
- 2 teaspoons sev optional, substitute with other crunchy topping
Instructions
Make Chole
- Heat the oil in a medium saucepan and add the cumin seeds. Once it starts sizzling, add onions, garlic, ginger, chillies and spices - turmeric and coriander.
- Cook for 6-7 minutes over medium to low heat, stirring occasionally until the onions are golden brown.
- Pour pureed tomatoes into the saucepan, and add salt. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, covered. Stir a few times to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Add chickpeas, water, and Garam Masala powder and cook on medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes to thicken.
Assemble Samosa Chaat
- Serve 1 cup of chole into each serving bowl.
- Top with dollops of yogurt, and break a samosa into each bowl. Add more chole, cilantro chutney, and tamarind chutney on top.
- Garnish with chopped red onions, cilantro leaves and sev (optional).
- Serve hot!
Notes
- Note: Calories are calculated based on air-fried samosas and not fried samosas. They're meant to be directional only.
- Experiment with different types of samosas. I prefer traditional potato samosas that are air-fried, but you can make this with any type!
- Use fresh spices. Try to use freshly ground spices and sprinkle chaat masala (available in grocery stores) or a pinch of Garam Masala over your samosa chaat.
- Don't skip the tamarind chutney. I know it's a unique flavor profile, but tamarind chutney is what brings all of these ingredients together!
