My today's recipe is a famous street food of Maharashtra. Simply it is known as Aloo Tikki Chaat in Northern India, but there we don't add ragda in it. Mouthwatering fabulous chaat, I changed few ingredients according to my taste, its came out just awesome. Instead of patties, you may eat ragda topping with chutneys, onions, coriander, sev with pav. This yummilicious dish is a fulfilling evening meal. Tastes trully great!!
