Chatpati Matar ki chaat

Hi Friends,
Enough of curries and pulaos..let's have some tasty tangy chaat today. The mention of chaat brings a big smile on our faces and so I am sharing the recipe of Matar chaat with you..
Matar Chaat:









INGREDIENTS:
Safed matar (Dried white peas)
Onion
Tomato
Ginger
Green Chili
Coriander leaves
Lemon
Garam Masala
Bhuna jeera (Roasted and ground cumin seeds)
Kala Namak (Black salt)
Salt
Oil

METHOD:
Soak safed matar overnight and cook them with a little salt till they are done.
Fine chop onion, green chilies, ginger, coriander leaves and tomato and mix it with cooked matar. Add bhuna jeera,garam masala and kala namak and make patties of this mixture. Shallow fry these patties on medium heat and add lemon juice. Garnish with chopped onion,coriander leaves, ginger Julian and some bhujia and serve hot.

TIP: This recipe is complete and does not need any accompaniments but if you want, you can serve it with chutney of your choice. If you don't mind using deshi ghee, use it to shallow fry and you will get that typical zyaka from North India.

Happy cooking....
