A popular Indian steet food, aloo chaat is a wonderful medley of flavors with cooked potatoes tossed with sweet and sour spicy chutneys—often a green cilantro or mint chutney and a tamarind chutney—seasoned with crunchy chickpea flour noodles and pomegranate seeds. The combination of tastes and textures makes aloo chaat a well known snack but it is also a refreshing accompaniment to a North Indian meal. The cooked potatoes absorb the striking contrast of flavors present in this dish, and the chickpea flour noodles provide a pleasing crunch that complements the fresh burst of the pomegranate seeds.
