Instructions

  1. 1

    Deep-fry the boiled potato cubes until they are golden and crisp on the edges.

  2. 2

    Drain them on paper towels. Immediately toss with salt, chaat masala (tangy spice mix) and roasted cumin powder.

  3. 3

    Place the fried potatoes into a serving bowl.

  4. 4

    Drizzle whisked yogurt evenly over the potatoes.

  5. 5

    Spoon over the tamarind chutney, then drizzle on the green chutney.

  6. 6

    Scatter sev (crispy chickpea noodle bits) generously over the top.

  7. 7

    Sprinkle chopped coriander over the dish with an extra pinch of chaat masala.

  8. 8

    Serve straight away while the potatoes are still warm and crisp.

Chef's tips

Fry the potatoes twice for short bursts if you want extra crunch that stays crisp under the yogurt and chutneys.

Ingredient substitutions

  • deep frying โ†’ air frying or pan roasting for a lighter version

Storage

Not suitable for storage once assembled; potatoes can be fried ahead and stored a day.

Reheating

Reheat fried potatoes briefly in a hot pan before assembling fresh.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • โ€ขPutting the dish together too early, which makes the crisp potatoes turn soggy.

Serving suggestions

Serve straight away in small bowls or paper cones.
