Scale
- 16 -20 Crispy Papdis
- 1.5 cup Yogurt, homemade or store-bought, whisked and chilled is possible
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tsp Sugar
- 1 Potato, boiled, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup cooked chickpeas or canned
- 2-3 tbsp Tamarind chutney

Instructions
- Add yogurt to a bowl with sugar and water and whick until a thick flowly consistency.
- Begin by dunking each papdi in the whisked yogurt and arranging it in a circular fashion on a plate. Dunking papdi in yogurt is Delhi style Papdi Chaat. However you can also skip the dunking in yogurt like they do in other parts of India and layer the yogurt later.
- Next sprinkle some chaat masala and roasted cumin powder on the yogurt dunk papdi.
- Then add potatoes and chickpeas on the papdis followed by a sprinkle of salt, roasted cumin powder, chaat masala and red chili powder.
- If you skipped dunking papdis in the yogurt, then generously drizzle yogurt now followed by the spice mix.
- Next layer the sweet and green chutneys.
- Lastly garnish with sev and chopped cilantro.
