We all are a huge fan for Chaats but i have never tried anything at home. Whenever we go to restaurants we eat chats and during our recent short trip to India, we ate a lot and after coming back we all were craving for chaats, especially my daughter Varsha a huge fan of chaats wanted me to make any chaat at home. So i wanted to try out the papdi chaat at home and for that I made the papdi and sweet chutney at home. I have the Green chutney recipe posted in my space along with the Khaman Dhokla Recipe.Recipe for Papdi:(yields 40 – 50 papdis)
MAIDA | ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
1 CUP
AJWAIN SEEDS | OMAM
1/2 TSP
WATER
TO KNEAD ( 1/2 CUP MINUS 2 TBLSP approx)
OIL
1 TBLSP( TO ADD IN THE DOUGH)
OIL
FOR DEEP FRYING
SALT
TO TASTE
In a wide bowl mix all the ingredients , except the oil for deep frying.
Knead the flour into a soft and stiff dough.
Cover and keep this aside for 15 minutes.
Take a big lemon sized dough and roll into a big roti.
Cut them into small circles with the help of a cookie cutter or any round shaped id.
Prick the small rounds with the fork , so that they should not puff while frying in the oil.
Deep fry this in oil. Ensure that the oil is hot.
Once it i done take out from oil and drain the excess oil in a kitchen towel.
When it is cool store them in airtight box and use it when needed.
Note:
While rolling the dough make it thin, if it is thick the papdis will become soggy and chewy.
This can be consumed as it is and it is very addictive too.

I can definitely see why Javelin wants to feature this! It looks delicious! I've never had chatt and certain haven't made it, but you have inspired me to change that! This is just irresistible! I can't believe this was your first go at it.
