Chaat !!! Who can deny to have this, particularly no Indian can resist it 😄
Well, chaat is popularly eaten as a snack / a light meal and is one of the famous Indian street food. The word 'chaat' here comes from a Hindi verb 'chaatna' which means 'to lick'. The base of the chaat mostly are like potatoes and papdis. The chutneys like tamarind (imli) chutney and coriander-mint chutney (green chutney) accompany almost all chaat recipes. Curd (well beaten) also helps as a lovely addition in flavor to the chaat. Some chaat recipes which I have already added in my blog are
- golgappa chaat
- sprouted moong chaat
- Corn Chaat
- Lilva kachori Chaat
- Tomato Canapes | Tomato Chaat
- Papdi Chaat with Sofrito (Spanish Tomato Sauce)
Another classic and famous street food is masala bread sandwiches. I have already shared the Masala Toast Sandwich in my blog beforehand. Both chaat as well as the masala sandwiches are my most favorite vegetarian street snacks. Few days ago, I had planned to enjoy both in one and hence the dish is 'Sandwich Bread Chaat'. Also the 168th theme for Foodie Monday Blog Hop group is 'Diwali Chaat Party', so I am sharing this chaat as my contribution.
If the sandwiches are ready on hand, then the chaat is super easy to make. Just assemble everything and voila, the sandwich bread chaat is ready to serve within few minutes. The filling here in the sandwiches I have used some potato and spice mixture. The sandwiches I prefer to toast slightly before using for the chaat, but this is optional. Without toasting or toasting till crisp totally depends upon individual choice. And like other chaats, this also must be assembled just before serving. Otherwise the sandwiches become soggy. These sandwich bread chat can be a perfect party appetizer.
