Notes

  1. If the Papdis are soft, gently roast them on a Tawa for a few minutes. You may also use Microwave Oven to get back the crunchy texture.
  2. Do not use sour Yogurt for this recipe. 
  3. Avoid using too many spices in your chaat. 
  4. If possible, use warm Potatoes or Chickpea Masala in the chaat. It'll help take your dish to a new level.
  5. Papdi Chaat doesn't retain its texture for a long time, so serve it immediately.
