Method

1. Wash the ber thoroughly and pat dry. If the fruits are large, slice them in half and remove the seeds.
2. Add the ber to a bowl and sprinkle with chaat masala, chilli powder, roasted cumin powder and black salt.
3. Drizzle over the lemon juice and gently toss everything together.
4. Add coriander and green chilli for an extra kick.
5. Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet, sour, salty and spicy flavours.

Quick tip: If your ber is already quite sour, go easy on the lemon juice. Taste first, then adjust the seasoning.
