Rain or shine, no day passes by with us Indians lusting for a 'chatpata' snack, and some of us even indulging in mouthful of roadside chaats and pani puris. We Indians love our spices and spicy snacks. One of the prime reasons why most of us tend to indulge in roadside fares rather than recreating the dishes at home is because we often fail to replicate the taste and zest that the roadside stalls offer. But then, these indulgences often come at the cost of acidity, flatulence and at times food poisoning. To prevent that, we bring you the secret recipe of how to make chaat masala at home. Make your own masala and add your own zest and 'zaika' to your chaats, tikkis, bhalles, fruit salads, and puris. Read on for the recipe.
