Ingredients

Steps

  1. 1Place puffed rice in a large mixing bowl, checking that it is fresh and crisp before you begin.
  2. 2Drizzle a little mustard oil over the puffed rice and toss well so every grain is lightly coated, which gives the dish its distinctive pungent aroma.
  3. 3Add finely chopped onion, tomato, and green chili to the bowl.
  4. 4Mix in roasted peanuts and boiled chickpeas for crunch and protein.
  5. 5Sprinkle in chaat masala, a pinch of turmeric, and salt, tossing everything together thoroughly so the seasoning coats all the ingredients evenly.
  6. 6Add a squeeze of fresh lime juice and toss once more to brighten the flavors.
  7. 7Taste and adjust the salt, chili, or lime as needed, keeping in mind the mix should be tangy, spicy, and slightly pungent from the mustard oil.
  8. 8Serve immediately in a paper cone or bowl, since puffed rice loses its crispness quickly once mixed with the wet ingredients.
