It's quite simple to prepare at home and can be served as a quick snack. Trying street style chaat recipes at home is always fun and it's healthy too. Green chutney and tamarind chutney are the two important chaat chutneys used in almost all chaat recipes. The drizzle of these two chutneys makes this chaat irresistible.

    Street Style Spicy Corn Recipe - Step by step pictures  

    For this spicy corn recipe you'll approximately need 1/2 cup of cooked corn kernels. You can either boil your corn in pressure cooker or cook it in microwave. I have cooked the corn in microwave, on it's high power for 3-4 minutes. If you're cooking corn in pressure cooker, cut it into half and cook it for 2-3 whistles in medium flame. You can even cook the corn kernels without cob in a sauce pan with some water.


    After cooking, remove the corn kernels from corn cob. I am doing it with my hands, you can also run a knife near the cob to remove off the corn kernels. Take corn kernels in a bowl and add 3/4 tbsp. of softened butter.


     Now start adding all the spices starting with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of red chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper powder and 1/2 teaspoon of chaat masala.


    Squeeze in some fresh lemon juice for that tangy flavor and add some finely chopped coriander leaves. 


    Now gently mix all the ingredients with a spoon. Always make sure whether the butter is mixed properly or not. Serve this spicy corn with a wedge of lemon.

    Biscuit Chaat | Biscuit toppings | Quick chaat recipe



    Hey guys!
       
      Let's take about the chatpata chaat which is originated in India. There are different chaat recipes made in different parts of India which differs from the ingredients used in it and there are some common ingredients which are used in most of the chaat recipes and that includes chaat masala, onion, tomatoes, coriander, Sev (thin deepfried chickpea noodles) and chaat chutneys. Chaat masala is a special ingredient which is used in all the chaat recipes and I would say it's the most important ingredient used in chaats. You can't even imagine a chaat recipe without chaat masala. And there are many chaat chutneys like green chutney (mint chutney), sweet chutney (tamarind and date chutney), red chutney etc. 
    Biscuit chaat is a simple and quick chaat recipe which is made without using chaat chutneys. In this recipe I have used tomato ketchup instead of chaat chutneys but there is no particular rule that Chaat chutneys can't be used in biscuit chaat. If you want to use chaat chutneys for this recipe you can always use it. 


               You can also use Tomato sauce instead of ketchup since both of them works fine for this recipe. This chaat can be made with any salt biscuits or crackers as per your wish. Here I have used Maska chaska and Mathiri masti flavors of 50 - 50 biscuits. Since these biscuits have added flavors in them they tastes so good when you eat them along with the other signature ingredients which I have added especially the flavorful Chaat masala. It will definitely burst in your mouth since it's packed with loads of flavors and that's the beauty of all chaat recipes.
    Don't miss out this recipe, if you are a chaat lover. It's so simple that anyone can make this recipe within minutes that too with the ingredients which are easily available at home. And you can basically alter this recipe as per your taste, that's the specialty of any chaat recipe. If you want it to be bit spicy you can add more red chilli powder. Likewise you can make it as per your taste and enjoy it!!!  You can check out the video to know how I exactly make it.
