Ingredients

  • 8 pieces papdi wafers (urad-dal crisps)
  • ¾ cup plain yogurt
  • 3 tbsp tamarind chutney
  • ½ tsp chaat masala
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely diced
  • ½ piece jalapeño, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. 1

    Arrange papdi wafers on a serving plate, standing them upright or slightly tilted.

  2. 2

    Drizzle yogurt generously over and between the papadis — the wafers will soften slightly from the moisture.

  3. 3

    Drizzle tamarind chutney in a thin stream across the plate, coating most of the papadis.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle chaat masala evenly over the top, then scatter cilantro, red onion, and jalapeño.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately while papadis are still crispy on the edges.

Tools you’ll need

  • serving plate
  • small spoon or squeeze bottle (for chutneys)
