So you have eaten your share of paneer tikka masala, tandoori chicken, and naan but have you tried Indian Street food called Chaat? It is tangy, spicy and best of all light and easy on the stomach. It is my favorite kind of Indian snack. Best washed down with some sugar cane juice or fresh sweet lime juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Growing up in India, Chaat was my go-to meal when catching up with friends or a snack between shopping sprees. Ajnabi in Chennai<\/a> was my favorite spot for loaded bowls of Bhel Puri, spicy and crunchy Aloo Tikki Chaat, or Pav Bhaaji. That perfect tingle from the sweet tangy chutney and heat from the green coriander mint chutney is something I miss as much I miss my family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially served only on the streets, these days you can find Chaat stations at weddings, and events and Chaat items making appearances on many high-end restaurant menus. I love putting together a DIY Chaat Bar for weekends, Diwali dinner parties<\/a>, <\/a>or any get-togethers. You can prep everything ahead of time and store it in serving bowls, and then set everything out at once so people can make their own bowl of chaat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
