Aloo Chaat

So, even now when I am done, shooting and eating the delicious chatpati aloo chaat, I am yet craving for it like I have not had it in ages. This simple aloo chaat recipe is indeed amongst the most favorite chaat after pani puri and bhel puri. We Indians love, not only potato chaat, but many more famous street foods. i.e mumbai street food, street food of Delhi and so on.

Potato is one such tuber root which we all love, be it a potato sabji, chilli potato, potato chaat, aloo methi, or aloo tamatar sabji. And, to be precise, our very famous potato, goes in almost all the chaat of Mumbai street food or favourite Delhi street food recipes. To name a few, aloo tikki, samosa chaat, ragda pattice, puchka, sev puri, dahi puri et al.

We in India get it easily on chaat stalls especially set up for only these items and trust me, people of all ages surrounds the stall. Chaats of Mumbai and Delhi are very famous and aloo ki chaat specifically is the most popular Indian snack.

I remember during my college days, after lectures all of us would specially go sometime to enjoy these chaats also at weekend with family. We had a fixed shop in our locality where we used to visit in the evening and nosh on every item they had in their menu. Not just budget friendly but it was taste friendly as well. And trust me, still when I visit that place, it has the same taste, same cleanliness and even the owner did not change.

Now, when I shifted here in Bangalore, we hardly get that taste here anymore and I really miss it. So why not get that taste at your home itself. I love this aloo chaat and the chunks of potato well mixed in chutneys and seasoned with the nylon Sev tastes purely heaven.

How to make dahi aloo chaat recipe:

Undoubtedly, aloo ki chaat is best and quick chaat recipe, we all love. At the same time, we also try to give twist to the recipe, dahi aloo chaat is one such twist. The recipe that is mentioned below remains the same, the only thing we want is addtion of dahi(curd).  Yes, nice chilled whisked curd or dahi is what you need. Just pour few spoons of dahi over the aloo and then sprinkle chutneys and powders. Isn’t that so eay? Indeed! 🙂

Furthermore, be sure to check that curd is not sour. Another interesting thing that we can add to make chaat interesting is, crushed papdi. Oh! the crushed papdi on the top of aloo ki chaat is just irresistible. This potato chaat topped with crushed papdi is a win-win recipe always.

Can we do the preparation of aloo chaat (potato chaat) beforehand?

Yes, You can do all the preparation for the chaat before hand and refrigerate it. In fact, a day before is absolutely fine. Sometimes, I do that even couple of days before. One important point to remember here is, it always best to fry potatoes just before assembling the chaat. Rest all the ingredients can be kept ready before hand. At the time of arrival of guest or friends, for get together or party, you can assemble aloo ki chaat quickly on serving platter within minutes. Now, isn’t that easy?

Also, if you making this chaat for kids, you can decrease the spiciness as per their taste. And, if you want it to be more spicy, increase it accordingly.
