Absolutely yummy!
Samosa Chaat, Street food
As a part of Shhhh Secretly cooking we are this month exploring Haryana.
Haryana, famous as the land of rotis, the food here is fuss-free made with the intention that the eater must relish every part of the food. The locals relish milk and milk products, as well as fresh vegetables. They also enjoy millets 😀
As Shhhh Secretly Cooking we are partnered and with different members and then the partners exchange secret ingredients. You cook with these ingredients from the chosen cuisine. It is fun do join us.
I have chosen to make Samosa chaat as my dish, for Haryana but was reluctant to make, as both my daughters are not at home. However, as the post by date for Shhhh Secretly Cooking approached I knew I had to move. Else, I will be disappointing my lovely partner Vidya Narayan who has chosen to give me maida and dahi as my secret ingredients. Vidya has already posted her delicious, healthy version of Dahi Bhalla using dahi and urad dal that I gave her. Do check her place at Masala Chilli a place that is as warm and beautiful as the lady behind it for her food is simple yet yummy and most importantly healthy.
The serving I have given here is based on 3 people here who have to watch what they eat. I do not know how I served up but we finished 8 samosas between us in 2 days. Also, I used ready-made samosas but you can make them yourself from here.
