The aloo chaat spring roll doesn’t have just one history. It has two – a Chinese one and an aloo chaat one! The vegetarian roll usually contains cabbage, beans, sprouts and carrots tossed with soy and garlic. But here’s the aloo c
haat spring roll that’s a winner in winters when served with mint chutney. Go ahead and try it.
Aloo chaat ke spring roll
Ingredients
Boiled potatoes, pealed and diced: 2 cups
Chopped onion: 1/4 cup
Chopped green chilly: 1 tbsp
Yellow chilly powder: 1 tsp
Chaat masala: 1 tbsp
Lemon juice: 1 lemon
Chopped fresh coriander: 1/4 cup
Chopped fresh mint: 2 tbsp
Plain flour: 2 tbsp
Spring roll pastry: 8 pieces
Oil to fry
Mint and green chilly chuntey: 1 serving
Method
Put boiled and diced potatoes in a mixing bowl. Add in chopped onion, chopped green chilly, yellow chilly powder, chaat masala, coriander chopped, lemon juice and chopped mint. Mix well and refrigerate.
Take plain flour and add just enough water to form a paste for sticking and binding the spring roll pastry.
Place one sheet on a flat clean surface, ideally a clean chopping board.
Place a generous portion of potato chaat mix in it, preferably at one end to make folding easier. Apply the plain flour paste on all sides and roll the sheet, forming a spring roll. Finish all the spring roll pastry sheets in that manner and refrigerate for 15 minutes. Heat the oil in a cauldron and fry the spring rolls till golden brown and crisp in texture. Serve hot with mint and green chilly chutney.
Note
Potatoes could be replaced with tandoori chicken chaat.
