Mutter Chaat

                                                                       Mutter Chaat

     If peas are shelled and ready, you can make this chaat anytime. Mutter Chaat is amalgamation of flavours…sweet, spicy and tangy. The bhel gives crisp texture to the chaat. You can even substitute bhel with bhujia. As the monsoon magic unveils the hidden cravings of food in me….I leave you with this spicy and yummy mutter chaat.
