I ate aloo chana chaat in Mirchi restaurant at Esplanade here in Singapore. I love that restaurant for the tasty food, ambience, location – yes location because, it is a life saver when visitors come and we take them to esplanade /Merlion and after the long roaming we will sure be tired and hungry. This restaurant saves us those times. Though I am not a big fan of their aloo chana chaat, I always wanted to try at home as I know I can make it better😊. I make channa masala or pindi chole once a week for Aj’s lunch box and I save some cooked plain channa / raw soaked channa for chaat and have had so many times, only that I have not clicked and posted here. Last two weeks I planned to picture but again I kept postponing. So today is the day, I made, clicked and then had it😀. There are many versions, here is my version anyways.

Ingredients
Chana (cooked) – 1 cup
Potato – 1
Onion – 1
Sweet chutney – As needed
Green chutney – As needed
Lemon juice – 1 tsp
Sev – As needed
Chaat masala – ½ tsp
Red chilli powder – ½ tsp

Chopped coriander – 2 tblsp
Method
- Cook potato, peel and cube it into bite sized pieces. I prick in 2 –3 places and microwave for 2 minutes, in between turning it upside down. Chop onion very finely. Gather all the ingredients and keep ready. Place channa, potato in a mixing bowl, add onion, red chilli powder, chaat masala, lemon juice, both chutneys and coriander leaves.
- Mix gently with a salad spoon and lastly add the sev lastly. Top with more chutneys and sev if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
- You can skip onion in this recipe. You can also add tomato along with onion.
- Chaat masala is the only thing for salt, so add it according to your taste.
- I love more sweet chutney in my chaat, so add chutneys according to your preference.
