East meets West in this innovative Aloo Chaat Tacos. Borrowing a few interesting ideas from Mexican cuisine, this awesome starter features taco shells stuffed with a chatpata potato filling, laced with creamy curd and tongue-tickling sweet chutney. If you want the snack a bit spicier, you can add green chutney or other spicy chutneys too.

Ingredients 
 
• 5 taco shells
 
For the aloo stuffing:

Preparation

 
For the aloo stuffing:
