"The iconic street food of Delhi is chaat, a variety of snacks that are meant to deliver a rave of tastes and sensations to the tongue, from crunchy to soft, tart to hot and sweet. The word is derived from the verb to lick. In Delhi, you can find nearly a dozen different kinds of chaat on the streets and they all involve something fried and starchy just like the recipe offered here."
