CHAAT POTATO SKINS

Steps:

• Prepare the potato skins: Prick the potatoes all over with a fork. Place on a baking sheet and bake at 425 ̊ F until crisp and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Let cool slightly.
• Cut the potatoes lengthwise into quarters.
• Holding each potato quarter with a kitchen towel, scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell.
• Meanwhile, make the tamarind sauce: Combine the dates, 2/3 cup water, the tamarind paste, cumin and a large pinch of salt in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring and smashing the dates, until slightly thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Press through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl; season with salt.
• Make the yogurt sauce: Mix the yogurt and lemon juice in a separate small bowl; season with salt. Refrigerate both sauces until ready to use.
• Make the relish: Combine the chile pepper, shallot, garlic and a few pinches of salt in a mini food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the cilantro and ginger and pulse, scraping the sides, until finely chopped.
• Assemble the potato skins: Brush the skins on both sides with the melted butter and sprinkle with the chaat masala. Arrange skin-side up on the baking sheet. Bake until crisp, about 10 minutes per side. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet. Top with the sauces, relish, crispy chickpeas and more chaat masala.

Bake, skin-side up, at 450 degrees until crisp, about 15 minutes. Add your favorite team toppings. (For cheesy skins, flip the baked shells over before topping, sprinkle with 1 cup grated cheddar cheese and bake an extra 5 minutes.)

• Bake skins in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip and continue to bake for 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven. Turn on the oven's broiler.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble.
