    * small pieces of crunchy noodles made from chickpea
    flour paste, which are seasoned with turmeric, cayenne,
    and ajwain before being deep-fried in oil.

    Put each item in an individual bowl alongside a stack of
    larger bowls to enable your guests to mix up their chaat
    with a spoon or, more traditionally, their hands.

    As a starter suggestion for assembly: Begin with a
    crunchy base (crackers, bhel or murukku), add vegetables
    and fruits, then chutneys and raita, and finally lime
    juice, plus any combination of other toppings, such as
    chaat masala, red chile powder and sev. Improv and
    adjustments are encouraged.
