RATING NOTES:

              DIFFICULTY LEVEL    :   EASY
              RATING  POINTS         :    8/10**

** If you do not have black salt or dry mango powder with you, you can use 1/2 tsp of chaat masala for the tangy taste.
** I like this dish to be as dry as possible. If you like some gravy, just do not dry the entire thing in step 6.
