Chickpea (Chole/Garbanzo beans) Chaat

I am big fan of all different kind of chaat. In India chaat is very popular street food. I got a  canned garbanzo beans from the local store here in United States,  so thought of making chaat from it. You can also bring dry garbanzo beans and wash it and then pressure cook it and use it after it gets to room temperature. Whenever I make chat at home here quickly I remember of the street chaat which is available in India on street and enjoying with friends...... 

 I have made it very simple this Chickpea Chaat so that even person learning to cook can make it with just few ingredients or this is the easy option when you don't want to cook too much and you have all the ingredients on hand....
1 cup of washed and pressure cooked Chickpea
2 tablespoon tamarind dates chutney (available in Indian Grocery Store or you can prepare at home)
2 tablespoon mint coriander chutney (available in Indian Grocery Store or you can prepare at home)
6-7 pieces of boiled and peeled potato
Gram sev for garnishing (available in Indian Grocery Store or you can prepare at home)
Just mix the tamarind dates chutney, mint coriander chutney, boiled potatoes with chickpea and top it up with gram sev.

For making it more tasty you can also add tomatoes and yogurt at the time of mixing with Chickpea. Also you can sprinkle some chaat masala if you like.
