Notes
Sweet corn - I usually buy a 12 oz bag of frozen corn, place it in a microwave safe bowl with ¼ cup of water, cover it and then cook it in the microwave for 2 minutes. Remove the bowl, drain any excess liquid and let the corn cool down completely before mixing in the other ingredients.
Chaat masala - This is a special spice blend that is sprinkled on all kinds of Pakistani snacks and especially on chaat. It's a mix of assorted spices, the predominant one being black salt, well known for its funky smell. The blend is sold at all South Asian stores and on Amazon under many different brand names. My 2 favorites are Shan and National.
The lemon & spices - Feel free to adjust the spices to suit your palate. Chaat in any form is typically supposed to be tangy and spicy, but you can be the judge of how spicy you like it to be.
