These papdis can be used for a variety of chats. I made them a day in advance and made 3 chats and enjoyed. Hubby liked the papdis as such so had to preserve it from him. These are quite addictive to have it as such too.

Tips

  • Dont forget to prick holes with a fork , else the papdis will puff up.
  • Adding ajwain gives a nice flavour to the papdis. Keeps well for 4-5 days when stored in airtight container.

Baked Papdi Recipe

Baked papdi a healthy papdi made using whole wheat flour and baked.
Papdi Recipe | How to make papdi (8)Pin
I was craving for chaats during my first trimester when I was carrying gugu and I was not able to eat chaats from shops as I had a strong nausea feeling on the sight of chaats in shops which had generous oil taste….so decided to make them at home.I first got ready with the chaat chutneys, made some healthy chaats and enjoyed it.I made sukha bhel then papdi chaat(will be posting it tomorrow) which I made using this baked whole wheat papdi and black chana.I admit baked papdis cannot come to the taste of the deep fried ones but sure good enough to eat.

They are crisp but slightly hard….and what I found was, soaking in chutneys and other garnishings made them a bit softer and I completely loved it.The main advantage of making chaats at home is that you can plus or minus ingredients according to your liking and enjoy.
