3 large potatoes
1 tsp red chile powder
Chaat masala
½ cup coriander leaves, chopped fine
Salt to taste
1 cup gram flour (besan)
2 pinches turmeric powder
Salt to taste

Slit the chiles, remove seeds, and set aside.
Boil potatoes in salted water. Peel and mash them well. Add chili powder, chaat masala, and coriander leaves. Mix well.
