Corn Bhel

This is a very healthy chaat for the ones who count the calories in their daily food.There is no compromise in taste as well when compared to the regular chaats.



Ingredients:

2 cups American corn
1/2 cup onion finely chopped deseeded tomatoes(i used cherry tomatoes)
1/2 cup finely chopped Onion
1 Big sized alu
1/4 cup finely chopped capsicum
1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1 tsp Green chutney
1 tbsp tamarind chutney
1 tbsp butter(if you are very conscious about the calories,replace with olive oil)
1 tsp chat masala
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
3 tbsp chopped corriander leaves
1/2 cup fine sev for garnishing
salt
lemon juice

Method:
Boil corn and alu separately.(stove top or microwave).Dice the alu into small cubes.
Drain the corn when it is hot and add butter to it and mix until butter melts.Blanch capsicum and red bell peppers in hot water for a minute and drain it.Add the bell peppers,alu,capsicum,tomato,onion and mix everything.Add green chutney,tamarind chutney,salt,chat masala,red chilli powder,lemon juice and give a good stir until everything is mixed properly.Take it into a plate or bowl and sprinkle lots of corriander and sev on it and serve it hot.
Note:
  • Replace butter with olive oil in the recipe for a Vegan version.
I am sending this to "Sunday Snacks -Chaats/Indian Street Food" event at pallavi's blog.
