Method

  1. 1

    Combine the base

    In a large bowl, combine the chickpeas, red onion, tomato, cucumber and green chili.

  2. 2

    Dress and toss

    Add the chaat masala, cumin, chili powder, lemon juice and salt. Toss well.

  3. 3

    Adjust

    Stir in the cilantro. Taste and adjust the lemon and salt — it should be tangy and bright.

  4. 4

    Top and serve

    Top with pomegranate seeds and sev if using, and serve immediately.

Notes

No cooking, high protein, and ready in 10 minutes. Chaat masala is what gives it the signature tangy flavor — worth seeking out. Add the sev just before serving so it stays crunchy.
