How to make it
7 steps. Take it one step at a time.
Mix the boiled mashed potatoes and chickpeas

Whisk the chilled yogurt
Whisk the chilled yogurt with sugar and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
Arrange the puris
Arrange the puris on a serving plate. Using your thumb, gently poke a hole in the center of each puri shell.
Fill each puri with a small amount of the potato and chickpea mixture
Fill each puri with a small amount of the potato and chickpea mixture.
Add a few drops of green chutney and tamarind chutney
Add a few drops of green chutney and tamarind chutney into each puri.
Generously pour the whisked yogurt
Generously pour the whisked yogurt over the puris until they are mostly covered.
Sprinkle chaat masala and roasted cumin powder
Sprinkle chaat masala and roasted cumin powder over the yogurt. Top with a generous amount of sev and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve immediately.
A little kitchen wisdom
Ensure the yogurt is chilled for the best contrast against the room-temperature fillings. If you don't have tamarind chutney, a mixture of date paste and lemon juice with a pinch of cumin can work in a pinch.
