Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Crispy vegetables with hot, sweet, and cooling sauces (Subzi pakora chaat); Sindhi-style stuffed potato shells (Aloo tikki chaat); Crispy shells filled with potato and chickpeas (Dahi chaat); Poori shells filled with chile-spiked water and cooling spices (Goi gappe chaat); Puffed rice with potato, unripe mango & sweet hot sauces (Bhel poori chaat); Pan-fried potatoes with scallions and hot sweet sauces (Aloo chaat)

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    I tripled the amount of tamarind concentrate, and it still mostly tasted like dates. I see that other recipes add cumin, so I will try to add that to give it more flavor.
