Straight from the street, no compromise: loud chutneys, real crunch, and that chaat-masala tingle at the back of your tongue. Gives you a proper meal in 35 minutes.

Prep 20 min Cook 15 min Serves 2 Medium

Ingredients

  • Yogurt1 cup
  • Ginger Garlic Paste1 tbsp
  • Garam Masala1/2 tsp
  • Saltto taste
  • Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
  • All-Purpose Flour2 cups
  • Tamarind Paste3 tbsp
  • Chaat Masala1 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Knead a firm dough (or pastry) and rest it 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the filling dry — no moisture, or the pastry weeps — and cool it completely.

  3. 3

    Stuff, shape and fry on a medium flame so the inside cooks through as the outside crisps.

  4. 4

    Serve with meethi and hari chutney; break one open for the steam.

Chef's tip

Make both chutneys ahead; they keep a week in the fridge and improve overnight.
