Directions:
- 1Make dressing by whisking together mustard oil, lemon juice, chaat masala and salt.
- 2Add tomato, cucumber, onion, chilli, and coriander to a bowl and mix to combine. Then add the drier ingredients — the toasted coconut, peanuts, sev, and puffed rice.
- 3Drizzle over the salad dressing and toss to coat evenly (or shake everything up in a giant mason jar to model the authentic Bengali method!).
- 4Serve in newspaper cones for the authentic street food experience, or pop it all in a big bowl with a serving spoon if you want to have this as a side dish at dinner time :)
