    • Red Chili Powder- Replace with cayenne pepper
    • Chaat Masala- Replace with black salt

    Storage

    Top Tip

    Allowing the chivda to sit for a while may cause it to become soggy. It is best to eat right away.

    • In a large bowl, mix the 2 chopped tomatoes, 1 chopped onions, 2 chopped jalapeno peppers, 1 teaspoon chaat masala, 1 teaspoon ed chili powder, and lime juice together.
    • Mix the chips and the salsa together. Add oil and a sprinkle of salt, then combine well with your hands while crushing the chips a little more (works best).

    Notes
