Making chaat masala at home is surprisingly easy once you have the spices and ingredients on hand.
Here is the simple process:

Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • Dry roast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, cinnamon stick, peppercorns and red chilies in a skillet on low heat. Roast separately until fragrant. Set aside to cool.
