About Papdi Chaat Recipe
Papdi chaat is a popular North Indian street food snack filled with a variety of mouth-watering ingredients and flavors. Papri Chaat includes chickpeas, potatoes, various spices, crunchy papri (deep-fried crackers), onions, chutneys etc.
You can easily customize this recipe to your taste. You can increase and decrease the number of spices or you can add in some other ingredients that you would like to add on while making this chaat.
So today’s recipe is what I made as per my taste and choices. I got the inspiration for this recipe from one of my favorite chaat wale bhaiya in Delhi (Kamlanagar). He used to make amazing chaat items.
On my visit to his place, I used to have three chaat items from his place and those were papdi chaat, dahi papdi chaat, and pani poori. And of course, that sukhi papdi was something that I never missed out on.
I know you too can relate to yourself because that sukhi papdi is something I guess most of the girls ask from panipuri or chaat wale bhaiya.
In today’s recipe, there is one ingredient that I love adding more and more, yes that is chilled, slightly sweetened curd. My mouth is watering while I am writing this and I am sure yours’ too. Tell me if I am wrong 🙂
By the way let me tell you that this papdi chaat is made from scratch and if you are curious to know how I made these Papdi’s at home then do check out the post about making the best papdi at home. And guess what? I made these papdi with wheat flour. Interesting right?
In case you are planning to make chaat at home then you might want to take a look at the posts for Green chutney, red chutney, and tamarind chutney.

I think there is no reason not to make this recipe, and I doubt somebody not liking this recipe. 🙂

Basic Ingredients Used to make Papdi Chaat Recipe:
Papdi: Papdi is easily available in all Indian grocery stores, and you can go for it, in case you don’t have much time.
But I would always advise making Papdi at home using my easy recipe. Papdi can be made in advance and stored for weeks in an airtight container.
Curd: Top the chaat with sweetened curd. The taste of the fresh curd is greatly enhanced by whisking it with some sugar. Do not miss this step. Ensure that the curd is not too tangy.
Boiled Potatoes & white Chickpeas: I have topped these papdi with some boiled and slightly crushed or mashed potatoes.
You can cook the chickpeas and potatoes, 2-3 days in advance and refrigerate them until ready to use. These are some basic steps, which if you plan ahead you can easily make chaat for yourself and for the family. You can skip chickpeas if you want to.
Chutneys: Usually this chaat uses two chutneys, one is tamarind chutney (sweet chutney) and the other one is coriander and mint chutney (green chutney), but in case you want a little spicy chaat just like me, then you can add red chutney also.
I would advise making this chutney in advance, so then you can use it whenever you want.
Coriander mint chutney can be stored for a week and sweet tamarind chutney stays for three to four weeks.
You can even buy this chutney as they are easily available, but again it tastes best when they are homemade.
Others: You will also need black salt, salt, red chili powder, roasted cumin powder, onions, and chaat masala powder.
