>>21460925>Chickpea + Opt. Chop PotatoIt all gets mixed, so split peas are ok. Taters should be soft/tender so some get mushed, but big/strong enough that not all of it will. Very big chunks aren't fun to eat
>Dice Veggies + Opt. Chop Fresh HerbCucumber + Onion + Tomato for sure. Red onion is normal but not req, and nobody will hate bell pep or jalap's if you want. Cilantro/parsley are nice
>Seasoning NoteIt's about layering flavor, but not everything need taste the same. 'Peas/taters should be salted, but do the veggies need be too? Veggies add fresh/crunch; there's already seasoning elsewhere. Should the chutneys below be seasoned? As sauces, yes... but do they need be the same? No, but overlap seasoning to your liking
>Green Herb ChutneyBlend Cilantro + Mint + (Spicy) Green Pep + Garlic + Ginger + Lemon + Cold Water/Ice + Seasoning. Cold water/ice keeps em green. Be conservative with lemon juice and add as needed. Along with Salt, maybe some cumin is a simple choice for simple chutney
>Fruity+Sour Red Tamarind ChutneyBoil & blend SEEDLESS Tamarind (paste) + Opt. Dates in Water; strain if needed. Add lots of Sugar/Jaggary until the sourness becomes a back-note (leave some). Along with Salt, season to pair with the fruity flavor, like Kashmiri Powder + Ginger Powder + Cumin + Fennel + Black Pep
>Sweet+Sour YogurtYogurt + Sugar + Opt. Water. I used honey and thinned greek yogurt with water to a sauce
>Req. Chaat Masala SeasoningIdk, just buy it. Or buy all the above premade
>Opt. Pomegranate>Opt. But Rec. ChipCould use tortilla chips or stuff em all in Puri. If you can, get some Bombay mix Sev. Shit's so good
0.) Starch Base - Mix the 'peas/taters together. After the salt's absorbed, mix in a little of the veggies and chutneys, maybe the yogurt and seasoning
1.) Place Chips/Puri where you want, and add the Starch base to it
2.) Lay Veggies on Top of Starch Base
3.) Layer 3 Sauces on Top
4.) Layer Chaat Masala, then Fresh Herbs/Pomegranate, then Sev
