Method:

For the chaat:
Wash & boil the sweet potatoes until just tender (not mushy). You can also steam or pressure cook for better nutrient retention.
Cool and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized cubes.
In a mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato pieces with garlic powder, pepper powder, red chilli powder, and salt
Mix well and toss again for even coating.
For the protein dip:
Discard the water used for soaking the red chillies and nuts.
In a blender, combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth. Add 1–2 teaspoons of water only if needed to adjust consistency.
Add this dip to the sweet potato chaat and mix well.
Serve the chaat garnished with freshly chopped coriander.
Note: You can transfer the remaining dip to an airtight container and refrigerate. It stays fresh for 4 to 5 days. Serve chilled as a dip with veggie sticks or use as a protein-packed spread for sandwiches and wraps.
