Instructions

Open the can of chickpeas, drain the liquid, rinse the chickpeas and place in a large mixing bowl.

Take the remaining tamarind chutney and the banana pepper sauce and drizzle it over the yogurt.
Sprinkle the Sev and Masala Peas over the entire mixture and enjoy!

Notes

Chickpeas - Canned Garbanzo Beans are just as good as Canned Chickpeas, so you can use whichever one is more easily available.

Millers sweet and spicy banana pepper sauce - The sauce comes in 3 different levels of heat. I use the Habanero as my palate is used to slightly spicier flavors. But you can try whichever one you like best.

Sev & Masala Peas - I use these 2 things to add the slight crunch to my chaat, but you can add whatever you have on hand. As a last resort I've used Stacy's pita chips when needed. They're not spicy like the Sev and Masala Peas but they add the texture that the chaat needs.
