Chaat dishes are always mouth-watering. When I was working with IT company, during evening tea time, we would go as a group to the chaat shops and always like to have pani puri, channa chat, dhahi puri or other chaat dishes. They are not only tasty but at the same time stomach filling too. I have seen most of the office goers tend to crowd near these chaat shops. For most of the chaat dishes we require green chutney and sweet chutney. Try to make larger quantities and refrigerate it so that you can prepare the chaat dishes instantly without any hazzle. Bread Channa chaat is a easy and simple chaat dish that is also healthy for our kids. It is also a wonderful party starter.
