Samosa chaat is a popular Pakistani-Indian street food that combines the crispy, savory samosas with spicy chickpea curry (chole), yogurt and a variety of flavourful toppings and chutneys.
Chaat is a broad term used for all Indian street food. It’s mostly spicy, tangy and topped with yogurt and chutneys. Chaat is meant to be a quick snack or appetizer, so it’s not something you want to spend hours preparing.
Samosas are a crispy snacks filled with a spiced potato pea mixture and deep fried. A number of countries have their own version, but the Pakistani version is obviously what I know best. And I like a good plate of this samosa chaat!
I particularly like the street version of the cholay (chickpeas) severed with the samosas than the samosa itself. The recipe for the cholay is a secret recipe that I need to decode!
I am not sharing the recipe for the samosas and chickpea curry as I have shared both in different albums on my recipe page.
This popular snack or appetizer is known for its complex flavour profile, combining crispy, spicy, tangy and sweet element in each bite. I will just share a breakdown of this delicious dish.
The base component is the cholay and samosa. The toppings include yogurt, chutneys and onion, cilantro and sev.. It’s a combination of flavors and textures that is deeply irresistible.
