A Q&A with chef Maneet Chauhan about her latest book, Chaat

By: The Local Palate

Chef Maneet Chauhan knows how to weave a good story.

At her Nashville restaurant Chauhan Ale & Masala House, she tells stories on the plate, through the bright, fragrant, and diverse range of Indian dishes she serves. In her latest book, Chaat (Clarkson Potter), Chauhan fills the pages with stories that pay tribute to her home country, and specifically, its fascination with chaat, the “sweet, salty, spicy, crunchy, creamy, hot, and cold snacks—street food, really—found in Indian markets, train stations, and home kitchens.” We caught up with her to learn more about what went into putting her stories on the page.
