Incorporate cumin seeds, salt, black pepper, turmeric powder, and baking powder into the batter.

Peel and slice water chestnuts into thin rounds; set aside.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until hot.

Dip each water chestnut slice into the batter, ensuring it's well coated.

Carefully place the coated water chestnuts in the hot oil, frying in batches.

Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle with chaat masala and lemon juice immediately after frying.

Serve hot with chutney or sauce of choice.
