Chaat is one of the popular snacks in North India and owing to its inviting taste, it has become famous from Kashmir to Kanyakumari in India. Made using a motley of bases, chutneys, munchies and fresh ingredients, Chaat can be sweet, tangy, spicy or savoury! Being from North India, I have had my fair share of Chaat and I cannot help but always have a jarful of Khajoor Imli Ki Chutney and Coriander and Mint Chutney stored in the refrigerator so that I can prepare a plateful of my favourite Chaat whenever I want. I have tried various Chaat such as Bhel Puri, Dahi Puri but Papdi Chaat was a snack that I was yet to document in my food diary. Last week, I made Papdi Chaat so that I could share its recipe with everyone of you!

Papdi Chaat is a yummy snack assorted with crunchy base of Papdi (crisp puris) which is topped with lip-smacking chutneys, veggies and curd. The crispy Papdi topped with potatoes, onions, chickpeas, chutneys, curd and spices offers a gamut of flavours in its one morsel. I am a big time fan of curd based chaat and Papdi Chaat got in good books as well. Papdi Chaat can be served for starters as well for snacks during evenings. I even host Chaat Party for my BFFs and turns out quite fun! You can make Papdi Chaat healthier by using Baked Papdi, I had tried it as well and believe me, the taste is not at all compromised!
