Chef Romy Gill shares her recipe for shakarkandi chaat. This fragrant sweet potato chaat with lime and mint is a Punjabi classic.
Romy says: “I enjoyed eating this simple chaat on a holiday in Punjab. The sweet potatoes in India are a little different to what you find in the UK, but they taste similar when served like this.”
Serve with Romy’s tamarind and date chutney.

Black salt (kala namak) is actually a dark pink colour; it’s used in Indian dishes to add a savoury, slightly smoky flavour. Buy it in Indian grocers or online.
