Chat Masala

Asafetida, mango powder, and black salt distinguish the chat masala from other masalas, giving the blend a sourness that makes it a welcome accompaniment to fresh fruit and other snacks. 'Chat' refers to various snacks and to the North Indian cafes that serve them. Fresh fruit often is sprinkled with lime juice and chat masala. Black salt (which is actually reddish gray), available at Indian food stores, has a distinctive flavor that's quite different from sea salt or table salt. The garam masala is the wild card in this recipe; either one of the (Tamil Nadu Curry Powder or Punjabi-Style Garam Masala) masalas may be used.

Black Bean Croquettes with Fresh Tasty Salsa

Excellent, this is one of best black beans recipes, we baked these Croquettes about 40 minutes, much longer than 20 minutes, and the croquettes turned out wonderful, breadcrumbs on the surface were golden and nice, and they tasted really good, if you want to try a meatless recipe, this is the one. Enjoy!
