What is amazing about this tangy Fruit Chaat is that it is perfect for any season. In the winter, you will enjoy the perky flavours of fruit chaat, while in the summer you will enjoy the juiciness of the fruits.
In short, fresh fruit chaat brings together the best of both worlds. Chopped and chilled fresh fruits are tossed with the chutneys and spice powders that are typically used in chaats, to give a juicy, crunchy, peppy flavoured fruit chaat treat that will refresh your taste buds.
Notes to make the perfect fruit chaat recipe. 1. Mix everything together and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour. You can add any fruit of your choice. Preferably, make use of seasonal fruits or whatever is easily available in your locality. 2. Just before tossing, peel and chop the banana. Add the bananas to the refrigerated mixed fruit bowl.

See why this is a healthy fruit chaat? Made from healthy fruits like papaya, apples, bananas, pineapple and black grapes. Papaya : Being rich in Vitamin A and vitamin C , it helps to protect against heart diseases by oxidising the excess cholesterol.
