Oats chaat recipe

Oats chaat recipe or oats bhel recipe – A very healthy alternative to our traditional fried chaats like bhel puri, sev puri, Sukha bhel, dahi puri.

This one has all the chaat flavors, combination of all the taste, crunch, everything in it. You won’t miss the chaat feeling at all. Trust me.

As you know that oats are rich in fiber and has many health benefits. You should include in your diet on regular basis.

Recently, I have been using oats in Indian cooking rather than having them only in breakfast oatmeal.

I got the idea of making this recipe from Nita Mehta’s cookbook.

As it is healthy recipe, it is good for your family and specially for kids who loves chatpata style street food.
