Mumbai Ragda Pattice
Mumbai's potato patties drowned in white-pea ragda, chutney-polished. Bold, loud, sweet-hot-sour-tangy all at once — India's street food playbook. Best consumed within minutes — the crunch is the point.

- Saltto taste
- Onion2, finely sliced
- Green Chili1-2, finely chopped

- Lemon1
- Chaat Masala1 tsp
- Roasted Cumin1 tsp

Instructions
- 1
Set out everything mise-en-place: this is assembly food, and it moves fast once you start.
- 2
Cook the base element — boil, fry or toast it — till it is exactly right; texture is the whole story here.
- 3
Spoon over the chutneys and yogurt in wide ribbons across the whole surface, not the middle.
- 4
Shower with the dry elements: chaat masala, roasted cumin, chili, and the crunchy topping — do this at the last second so it stays loud.
- 5
Scatter the yellow split peas and cilantro, add one more drag of chutney, and put it in front of someone immediately.
Chef's tip
Black salt (kala namak) is the secret edge; seek it out.
