This recipe was added anonymousely and is a bit of a mess in terms of formatting, etc. It would be great it someone more familiar with the dish could clean up.

I have given a very basic recipe of the dish. You can make other additions like chopped raw green mango, cucumbers, a pinch of black salt, papdi and puris of pani puri . The whole idea is to get that perfect balance of sweet, tart and spicy in that one single crunchy bite.
