Papadi for Chaat

Chaat is very famous street food in India. There are so many chaat varieties like Bhel, Pani-Puri, Dahi-puri, papadi chat, sev-batata-puri ohh .. this list is gonna be endless leaving us with the hankering to have everything at once. If you have this Papadi ready or made in advance you could satisfy those taste-buds literally any time :-) So today lets just make these papadis and store it in the airtight container so we can use it for papadi chaat later.

1 cup of all purpose flour will make 50-60 small size papadis.

In a mixing bowl take 1 cup all purpose flour. Add ajwain or carom seeds. Add 3 tbs of oil and some salt. Now by adding water little by little make a stiff dough.

Let the dough rest for 30 minutes.

Heat the oil for deep frying.

Divide the dough into 5-6 big equal size balls. Roll each ball into not so thin circle. Using a small lid cut circles in the big rolled circle. Fry 1st batch at one time. Make next batch and fry it.

Delicious and irresistible papadis are ready to use and while putting in the container you realize some of them are already gone :-) so before they all go we should make some chaat .. haappy cooking lovelies !!
