Aloo Papdi Chaat

Papdi chaat is great comfort food. I had a different kind of presentation of papdi chaat at my friend Shweta’s house a few years back. Instead of serving in bowls, she had separately arranged each flat puris. I liked that idea since it can be served as an appetizer. Whenever I have made trays of this, it’s gone in minutes at parties.
Serves: 10 | Prep Time: 20 min. | Cooking Time: for potatoes
Ingredients:
·         Flat puris – 1 packet (Contains about 50 to 60 puris, available in Indian stores)
·         Thin Sev – 1½ cup
·         Onion – 1 cup (thinly chopped)
·         Tomato – 1 cup (thinly chopped)
·         Potatoes – 2 cups (Boiled, peeled and cubed)
·         Green Chutney – 2 tbsp.
·         Tamarind Chutney – 2 tbsp.
·         Coriander leaves to garnish.
·         Thick yogurt – ½ cup
·         Chaat Masala Powder – ½ tsp.
·         Red Chili powder – ½ tsp.
·         Salt to taste for yogurt
Method of Preparation:
~  Add Chaat masala, Chili powder and salt to yogurt and mix them.
~  Arrange flat puris in a tray.
~  Now top all the puris with tiny bits of potato and then Onion.
~  Spoon over little bit of yogurt mixture on each and then put green and tarmarind chutney on top.

Almost ready to top it off with Sev
~  Now add tomatoes. Garnish the generously with sev and some coriander leaves.
~  This will easily stay up to 4 hours (if not over by then) without getting soggy.
