Tips:

  • Adjust the amount of chaat masala and salt to your taste preference for spiciness and saltiness.
  • For a creamier dressing, you can add a tablespoon of yogurt or vegan yogurt.
  • If you don't have raw mango, you can substitute it with another tart fruit like green apple or even chopped grapes for a different flavor profile.
  • This salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, the lettuce might become slightly wilted, so it's best enjoyed fresh.
