ChatpateTangy puffed rice snack

Chatpate is the snack Kathmandu students buy after school from street carts near Ratna Park and Basantapur: puffed rice tossed in a steel bowl with boiled potato, onion, tomato, cucumber, green chilli, lime and a drizzle of mustard oil, then sprinkled with chilli and tingling timur. It should be sour, salty, hot and crunchy all at once. The mistake is mixing it too early: the puffed rice soaks up the juices within minutes and goes soggy. Chef's tip: get everything chopped and ready, then mix one portion at a time and eat it straight away.

Tarri pohaFlattened rice with spicy chickpea curry

In Nagpur, winter mornings start at a poha stall: soft, turmeric-yellow flattened rice heaped onto a plate and then flooded with tarri, a spicy black-chickpea gravy with a slick of red oil on top, finished with raw onion, sev, coriander and a squeeze of lemon. It's Vidarbha's answer to the plain poha eaten elsewhere in India, louder and hotter, made for a cold morning and a cutting chai. Making it at home takes a little planning because the chana needs an overnight soak, but the tarri keeps for days. Chef's tip: don't skimp on the oil in the tarri; the red layer that floats on top is what soaks into the poha and gives the dish its name.

BhusuFried lentil and sev snack mix

Bhusu is a festive farsan mix: crunchy fried pulses and lentils, three kinds of sev, tum tum, bundi, sakarpada cubes, puffed rice, cashews and peanuts, all tossed in a sweet, sour and spicy seasoning. It makes a large batch for Diwali and keeps for weeks in air-tight tins. It's a project spread over a few days, because the pulses need soaking first. Make the jini sev, jadi sev, tum tum and sakarpada from their own recipes in this section.
