You can prepare the components in advance, but it's best to assemble the chaat just before serving.

Combine and add the sev right before you plan to eat to prevent it from becoming soggy.

The key is to cool them down rapidly after boiling. Immediately transfer the hot eggs from the boiling water into a bowl of ice water and let them sit for at least 5-10 minutes. This shock causes the egg white to contract and pull away from the shell, making them much easier to peel.
