out of all Chaats, the crunchy, tangy, hot and sweet flavour of the papdi chaat is the all time favorite of mine. Crispy Flat puris or Papdis topped with cheakpeas, potatoes and other sprouts and flavored with spicy green chutney and sweet and sour tamarind chutney , curd and garnished with crispy sev is delicious to eat as a snack or an alternative to a full meal. You can feel the burst of flavor in your mouth as you bite into the crunchiness of the Papdi, sweetness of the yogurt, tanginess of the red chutney, spice from the green chutney and the heavenly flavor of the homemade chaat masala.
