Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 475 g before cooking, which is about 240 g per serving.

Steps

  1. Prepare all of the fresh toppings before opening the chips: finely chop the onion, tomato, cucumber, and cilantro. If using chutneys, have them ready so the chaat can be assembled quickly.

  2. Place the potato chips in a large mixing bowl. Break only the largest chips into bite-size pieces, keeping some pieces intact for texture.

  3. Add the chopped onion, tomato, cucumber, and cilantro to the chips.

  4. Drizzle in the mint-coriander chutney, tamarind chutney, and lemon juice.

  5. Sprinkle in the chaat masala, red chili powder, and a small amount of salt if needed. Toss gently with a spoon or clean hands until the toppings and seasonings are distributed without crushing the chips.

  6. Transfer the chaat to serving bowls and scatter the sev over the top. Serve immediately while the chips are still crisp.

Notes

The provided source contains only the title/caption “Lays chaat” and no visible ingredient list or instructions. The ingredient quantities and method are therefore a low-confidence reconstruction of a typical potato-chip chaat. Assemble immediately before serving because the chutneys and vegetables quickly soften the chips.
