Soak chickpeas overnight in water. Make sure to use a large bowl as the chickpeas will double in size.

If you are using canned chickpeas, make sure to drain the water from the can and rinse before using.
Place the chickpeas in a large bowl. Add diced tomatoes, diced onions, green chili, coriander and salt, chaat masala and lemon juice. Mix well.
Let it sit for about 10 – 15 minutes to let the flavours develop. Adjust seasonings if required.
Garnish with coriander leaves and chaat masala before serving.
