Cholay is the Desi version of a salad. The base is chickpeas or chana with onions, tomatoes, green chilies, and coriander as the supporting characters, finished off with chaat masala for that necessary spic. Khataaz, a traditional spicy street food snack, is made of a lot of ingredients to make it tasty.

One bowl of cholay chat is enough for a 1-time meal and can be placed instead of lunch/dinner, can be considered a complete food, and is a good choice for dieting purposes.

It contains low calories and less fat. They are a purely healthy meal with added yogurt, green chutney, tomato, potato, coriander leaves, green chilies, and tamarind sweet and sour sauce, along with boiled chickpeas, potatoes, and papri, which enhances the taste of Chola chat.
