Here's what you need to do to make idli chaat:
1. Grease a pan with oil. Fry idlis, until both sides are slightly brown and crisp.
2. Now comes the most exciting part. It's assembling time. Just take a spoonful of curd and spread it over the idlis.
3. Sprinkle some salt for taste.
4. Now, add some boiled potatoes to the medley, followed by chopped onions and chopped green chillies.
5. Next, take a dash of green chutney (click here for recipe) and spread it across the idlis.
6. Repeat the same step with imli chutney (click here for recipe). You can monitor the amount of chutney depending upon your spice tolerance levels. If you would like your chaat to be slightly sweet, you can increase the quantity of imli chutney.
7. Top it off with crunchy sev and serve. (optional).
