Instructions

1. Make the Papdi Dough

   In a mixing bowl combine 1 cup all‑purpose flour, 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 tsp salt, 3 tbsp oil, red chili powder, crushed dried chilies, black and white sesame seeds, and ajwain. Mix until the dry ingredients are evenly coated with oil.

   Time: PT5M

2. Add Water and Knead

   Gradually add about ½ cup room‑temperature water (plus a tablespoon if needed) and knead into a smooth, non‑sticky dough. It should be firm—not too soft and not too hard.

   Time: PT5M

3. Rest the Dough (Optional)

   Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 5 minutes. This relaxes the gluten and makes rolling easier.

   Time: PT5M

4. Roll and Cut Papdi

   Divide the dough into small balls (pea‑size). On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball as thinly as possible (about 1‑2 mm). Cut into 2‑inch circles and prick each circle a few times with a fork to prevent puffing.

   Time: PT10M

5. Heat Oil for Frying

   Pour enough oil into a deep pan to submerge the papdi. Heat over medium flame until the oil is warm (around 150‑160°C).

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 150-160°C

6. Fry Papdi – First Batch

   Carefully slide a few rolled circles into the oil. Fry until they puff slightly and turn golden‑brown, about 30‑45 seconds per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a cooling rack.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 160°C

7. Fry Papdi – Second Batch

   Repeat the frying process with the remaining dough pieces.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 160°C

8. Cool the Papdi

   Allow the fried papdi to cool completely on a rack. They will become crisper as they reach room temperature.

   Time: PT5M

9. Prepare the Topping Mix

   In a bowl combine boiled chickpeas, boiled potatoes, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 0.5 tsp chaat masala. Toss gently.

   Time: PT5M

10. Assemble the Papdi Chaat

    Place a layer of papdi on a serving plate. Spoon the chickpea‑potato mixture over them, drizzle whisked yogurt, sweet tamarind chutney, date‑jaggery chutney, and coriander‑mint chutney. Sprinkle chopped onion, green chili, fresh coriander, and pomegranate seeds. Finish with a pinch of extra chaat masala.

    Time: PT5M
