Prep 19 min Cook 20 min Serves 2 Easy

Ingredients

  • Yogurt1 cup, whisked
  • Butter3 tbsp
  • Saltto taste
  • Lemon1
  • Tamarind Paste2 tbsp
  • Chaat Masala1 tsp
  • Red Chili Powder1/2 tsp
  • Roasted Cumin1 tsp
  • Corn2 cups

Optional extras

  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prep the crunchy and the soft components in separate bowls; assembly takes four minutes flat.

  2. 2

    Beat the yogurt till pourable and gloss-free; lumpy yogurt ruins an otherwise perfect chaat.

  3. 3

    Spread the base out flat and drag both chutneys across it in ribbons.

  4. 4

    Flood the plate with yogurt, then season hard — masala from a height falls evenly.

  5. 5

    Top with the butter, pomegranate seeds and fresh coriander; serve within five minutes, fork optional.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
