Every chaat has a little bit of sweetness, a little bit of tartness, a little heat, and a little crunch. That's what makes them so fun to eat. This chaat marries the fleeting succulent sweetness of watermelon with the hearty crunch and saltiness of peanuts.
Ingredient:
- 2 teaspoons canola oil
- 1 cup lightly salted roasted peanuts
- 1 (4-inch) curry sprig
- 2 teaspoons chaat masala, divided
- 1 cup chopped seedless watermelon (about 5 1/2 ounces)
- ½ cup thinly sliced cucumber (from 1 small cucumber)
- ¼ cup finely chopped red onion (from 1 small onion)
- ¼ cup thinly sliced radishes (from 3 medium radishes)
- 1 medium-size serrano chile, seeded and finely chopped (about 1 1/2 tablespoons)

- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 medium lime)
