Notes: Do not let the laundry list of ingredients and the one unusual spice be intimidating. This is basically a spicy cole slaw with tomatoes and a vinaigrette dressing. I took it to Couples Club once and we had to bring the recipe and bags of the chaat masala to everyone the next month.
Having the fresh mint is an important part of the flavor. Note that there is no oil in the dressing
