Instructions

Make Chole

  1. 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.
  2. Cook for 6-7 minutes over medium to low heat, stirring occasionally until the onions are golden brown.
  3. 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.
  4. Add chickpeas, water, and Garam Masala powder and cook on medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes to thicken.

Assemble Samosa Chaat

  1. Serve 1 cup of chole into each serving bowl.
  2. Top with dollops of yogurt, and break a samosa into each bowl. Add more chole, cilantro chutney, and tamarind chutney on top.
  3. Garnish with chopped red onions, cilantro leaves and sev (optional).
  4. 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!
