aloo chaat is a popular Mumbai roadside aloo chaat made from baby potatoes, marinated in Indian spices and sautéed in oil, and topped with moong, sev, curds, garlic chutney, sweet chutney and green chutney. We have added chana dal to aloo chaat which gives a nice crunch.

There are many ways to make aloo chaat recipe and ours is the Mumbai roadside aloo chaat style. In some parts of the country they deep fry the baby potatoes but we have cooked it on a non stick pan. Ours is a easy and quick aloo chaat recipe.

Delhi aloo chaat is made by deep frying the potatoes. We have made Mumbai roadside aloo chaat healthier by boiling the baby potatoes and then cooking it on a non stick pan.

Notes and tips on aloo chaat recipe. 1. To make the Aloo Chaat , we first have to wash and boil the potatoes. For that, wash the baby potatoes under running water till clean. Scrub them with the help of a brush if there is any mud and dirt stuck to it. 2. Add the baby potatoes to the boiling water and cook on a medium flame till the baby potatoes are completely cooked. They should not be very soft or else they will break on cooking. The cooking might take around 18-20 minutes on a medium flame with closed lid. 3. Add the dried mango powder for a pleasant sour (khatta) taste to the marinade. 4. Now add the besan for binding so that the potatoes don’t release water. 5. Mix gently with the help of two spoons and keep aside to marinade for 5 to 7 minutes. This is a very important step as the potatoes need to take on the flavour of the marinade. 6. Cook on a medium flame for 3 to 4 minutes, while stirring occasionally, till they are heated through and get a little browning on them. Once cooked perfectly, you can see all the masalas coat the potatoes very nicely.
