A salad for Aloo Chana Chaat lovers! And believe me, healthy too. The only fried thing is the sev, which you can skip as it is used just to add a crunch to the dish. The saunth(dried ginger) and dates chutney gives a special taste which is typical to the North Indian chaats. Add yogurt and lo, you get the flavour of Dahi Aloo Chana chaat. Go for your choice and enjoy the chaat flavour in a salad.
