Chaat masala is the perfect seasoning spice to add a zingy, tangy and salty touch to an Indian starter, snack or salad. The famous Indian street food ‘chaat’ which is a generic name for spicy, sweet and crispy snack often contains chaat masala which is made up of spices including, asafoetida, mango powder and black salt. Fresh fruit is often sprinkled with chaat masala and lime juice too and enjoyed as a snack. When Indian fried snacks and tandoori starters are under seasoned and have already been cooked, it’s a great idea to sprinkle a little chaat masala on top for extra seasoning and flavour. The spice is said to be good for stomach disorders and known to be a good digestive.
