Tawa Aloo Chat

Here is one of my favorite recipe, and I can just have this 24*7 - 3 times a day......


3 boiled potatoes - cubed
4 Tbsp oil / ghee - for shallow fry
Salt - To taste
1Tbsp Tamarind pulp
1 Tsp Lemon juice
1 tsp red chilly powder
1tsp roasted cumin seed powder
1/4 tsp black salt
1/2 tsp Jaljeera / Chat masala

And loads of excitement + mouth watering moments


In a pan heat oil and add the potatoes , shallow fry until brown and crispy - If you wish you can also deep fry it once until light brown and then fry it on a tawa with ghee until crisp
Once done remove the potatoes in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients
Mix well and serve

Tips:-

You can serve these on plastic plates - like the one I got from BJ's or in paper plates
Garnish it with coriander / cilantro / pomegranate pearls - I could not wait long to garnish it over
If you want to make it a lil bit healthy - you can add in finely chopped cucumber - tomatoes and onions...it tastes really good and gives a very colorful look to the dish
I did not add tamarind pulp ( I never miss it though), and that s why the aloo chat has turned a lil bit as a dry version, the tamarind helps in coating the masala evenly

So what are you waiting for.................Happy Chat-ing
