Notes

Samosa: Pick the samosas that you enjoy for the recipe. The ones with potato filling are most popular but the ones with other fillings can be used too. I refrain from getting those with cheese as they do not generally work well for chaat. Both store bought and homemade ones work.
Chole: Chole is an essential element of the recipe. Make sure they are not super runny as that will make the chaat soggy in minutes. I often use leftover chole with frozen samosas to make this chaat.
Making it Vegan: To make the recipe Vegan we need three things; plant based yogurt, chole made in oil and samosas that are Vegan friendly i.e. fried in oil and instead of ghee. Then the recipe can be made Vegan.
Making it ahead of time: The recipe is great to make ahead of time. To do so, simply prepare the chole and chutneys ahead of time. Also, chop the vegetables and prepare the seasoned yogurt. To assemble, simply heat up samosa and chole and proceed.
