Aloo Chaat is so famous that Dilli Ki Aloo Chaat inspired a full length Bollywood feature film made around its flavor. It is tough to resist this evening snack specialty. The challenge is that “deep frying” followed by “shallow frying” raises eyebrows of even those who are not health conscious. And then that never ending addition of masalas, every spoon of that makes us tell ourselves, it is not going to do any wrong. There has to be a way out and hash-browns are not that way.
Aloo Chaat in the picture above has won many fans since it was “invented” a couple of months back. It tastes awesome and is undoubtedly a healthier option. Here is how you can make it.
