Steps

1

Prepare Samosas

Heat the samosas according to package instructions. This can be done in an oven, air fryer, or by frying in oil until golden brown and crispy. Let them cool slightly, then break them into smaller pieces and place them in individual serving bowls.

2

Prepare Yogurt

In a bowl, whisk the plain yogurt until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and a little sugar if desired. Set aside.

3

Assemble Base

On top of the broken samosa pieces, layer the finely chopped red onion, tomato, and drained chickpeas.

4

Layer Flavors

Generously drizzle with the whisked yogurt, followed by the tamarind chutney and mint-coriander chutney. Sprinkle with chaat masala, roasted cumin powder, and a dash of red chili powder if you like extra heat.

5

Garnish and Serve

Finally, garnish with sev, pomegranate seeds (if using), and fresh chopped coriander leaves. Serve immediately to enjoy the crispiness of the samosas.

Extra Tips

Fry or heat the samosas just before assembling to ensure they remain crispy.

Prepare all your toppings and chutneys in advance for a quick and easy assembly.

Do not mix the chaat too far in advance, as the samosas will become soggy and lose their crunch.
