🛒 Ingredients

✓ 8 sheets phyllo dough (thawed)
✓ 1 tbsp vegetable oil (for brushing)
✓ 1 tsp cumin seeds
✓ 1/2 tsp amchur (dried mango powder)
✓ 1/4 tsp black salt (kala namak)
✓ 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
✓ Sea salt to taste
✓ 1/2 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
✓ 2 tbsp fresh cilantro (chopped)
✓ 2 tbsp red onion (finely diced)
✓ 1/2 cup tamarind paste (seedless)
✓ 2 tbsp jaggery (or brown sugar)
✓ 1 tbsp fresh ginger-garlic paste
✓ 1 tsp chaat masala
✓ 1/2 tsp cumin powder
✓ 2 tbsp pomegranate arils
✓ 1 tbsp roasted chickpeas (crushed)
✓ 1 green chili (finely sliced)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare Samosa Spice Blend: Toast cumin seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1 minute until fragrant. Grind coarsely. Mix with amchur, black salt, cayenne, and sea salt in a small bowl. Set aside.

2. Brush & Layer Phyllo: Lay one phyllo sheet on a cutting board. Lightly brush with oil using a pastry brush (≈1/4 tsp per sheet). Sprinkle 1/4 tsp spice blend. Layer second sheet, brush, and repeat until all 8 sheets are stacked. Cut stack into 2-inch squares.

3. Bake Phyllo Crisps: Spread squares in a single layer on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 12–15 minutes until golden and crackle-crisp. Cool on the tray for 2 minutes (they crisp further as they cool). Transfer to a wire rack.

4. Build Tamarind Chutney: In a small saucepan, combine tamarind paste, jaggery, ginger-garlic paste, chaat masala, and cumin powder. Heat gently for 2 minutes, stirring, until jaggery dissolves. Taste and adjust salt/spice. Cool to room temperature. (No added fat needed.)

5. Layer Nachos Base: Arrange 12–15 baked phyllo crisps on a platter or individual plates in overlapping clusters. Drizzle 1 tbsp tamarind chutney over the pile, ensuring even coverage.

6. Add Yogurt & Toppings: Dollop 2 tbsp Greek yogurt across the nachos. Scatter pomegranate arils, roasted chickpeas, fresh cilantro, red onion, and green chili slices. Dust lightly with extra chaat masala. Serve immediately while phyllo is still warm and crisp.
