Ingredients for Papdi :

All purpose flour (maida or plain flour) - 1 cup
semolina flour (sooji) 1/4 cup

salt 1/2 teaspoon
water to knead.



Method for papdi:

Mix all ingredients except water. Now slowly add water and knead like chapati/roti dough.Take small portions and roll them out. Now cut them into rectangles (see pictures to understand better).Heat oil for deep frying. Now add these rectangles one by one and deep fry them till golden brown.Remove on a paper napkin so that oil is absorbed and these rectangles become crisp. Keep aside

Follow the recipe here for chole (Masala chick peas). Make the chole a little bit loose in consistency.

Coriander leaves : handful
sour cream - 3 tblsp
