How to Make Chaat Masala
- Heat a dry sauté pan over medium-high heat. Roast 1 tablespoon cumin seeds until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes). Remove and set aside. Repeat with 1 tablespoon coriander seeds and 1 teaspoon ajwain seeds (or caraway seeds). Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- In a spice grinder, combine the roasted cumin, coriander, and ajwain with 2 dried red chilies (adjust to your spice preference), 1/2 teaspoon black salt (kala namak), and 1/4 teaspoon citric acid. Grind to a fine powder.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder, and 1/4 teaspoon asafoetida (hing) to the spice powder. Mix thoroughly.
- Store your freshly made Chaat Masala in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Enjoy!
