Notes
1. Boiled and cubed potatoes can be added to this.
2. I did not have nylon sev, so I added the store-bought Aloo bhujia.
3. Pomegranate can also be added.
4. I served this on plain crackers but even 50 50 biscuits can also be used or any salt biscuits can be used for serving.
5. As chat masala contains salt just check for salt before adding salt.
6. Roasted peanuts can be added instead of boiled peanuts.
