So, if you want your dish to taste sourer, you can experiment with chaat masala.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One can also make use of chana masala for chaat masala.

Whereas, chana masala is a recipe spice that is used in the preparation of chickpea dishes like chana masala (chickpea curry).\u00a0<\/li><li>Chana masala is a type of spice that can be used for both gravy and dry chickpea dishes. Chaat masala can only be used for seasoning dry food items.\u00a0<\/li><li>The texture of chaat masala is described as smooth, as it&#8217;s a fine powder.
