Boondi Chaat - Quick Spicy Snack

"Chaats" is the word used to describe very popular Indian street food, bursting with delicious flavours. Tangy, spicy, sweet and crunchy - it's a perfect combination to get your taste buds asking for more! 

We often miss these amazing taste tantilisers but the best thing about them is they are so easy to make and enjoy fresh at home! Add to that, the fun of actually creating your own chaat dish and this is a great activity to bring the family together.

Here is my version of Boondi Chaat (Boondi is small balls of fried chickpea flour readily available at all Indian stores). Made in 5 minutes and every spoonful enjoyed thoroughly!

Ingredients: 1 cup of Boondi, 1 carrot grated, 1 tomato chopped, half onion chopped, 1 spoon chaat masala, chopped corrainder and lemon juice.

Make: Combine all wet ingredients together in a bowl then mix in the spoon of chaat masala. Add the cup of boondi to this mix and slightly toss (still keeping the boondi crunchy not soggy). Sprinkle the corrainder and squeeze some lemon juice on top before serving.
