Sweet potato chaat recipe is an easy and tasty mumbai street style chaat recipe. Generally they make aloo chaat, i replaced aloo with sweet potato. I have 1 bag full of sweet potato, though i love eating boiled sweet potato, kids never touch sweet potato. As Suresh is also travelling, i wanted to make some interesting recipe using sweet potato. I saw this aloo chaat recipe in tarla dalal’s website and followed the same using sweet potato. It turned out so yum and the plate got over as soon as i finished clicking the pictures.

- Combine them well and let this sit for 5 minutes.
- In a pan add the sweet potato mixture and let this roast in a small flame for 3-4 minutes.
- I have seen in few websites, they deep fried the potatoes. I don’t want to deep fry.
