PAPRI CHAAT WITH POTATO, CHICKPEAS, AND CHUTNEYS

Papri chaat is a traditional street snack found all over India. Papris are crispy chips made from a simple wheat dough. Much like nachos, the papris are topped with assorted accoutrements of complementing and contrasting textures and flavors, and always dusted generously with chaat masala, a fragrant and flavorful spice mixture.

Papdi Chaat is a yummy snack assorted with a 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.
