Notes
*Chaat masala is a spice powder blend commonly used in Indian and Pakistani cuisines. It usually is made up of amchoor (dried green mango powder), Kashmiri chili, dried ginger, coriander, cumin, peppercorns, salt, and a variety of other spices. It has a very distinct taste and adds great depth of flavor with its tart, salty, sour, and sweet notes.
