    Papad Katori chat, Indian street food, papad shaped into a katori and filled with beans, veggies and crunchy elements. A delicious appetizer, perfect for parties and get togethers.

    Papad Katori Chat

    I m always nervous while making chaat-street food. My friends laugh at me when i say this. I don’t know why, you throw me a tough bread recipe, i would happily accept the challenge and go about it, but chaat, i feel it needs a different magic to make it taste awesome.

    Sometimes back i saw this super tempting papad katori chat @ Ruchiskitchen . Ohh it was sooo inviting, i couldn’t stop myself from thinking about it.  Finally i gathered my courage to make it and voila loved it. I have adjusted the sesasonings for the stuffings  to suit our taste-buds.  We paired this yumm katori with hot chai and loved the combo to the core.

    What is papad katori chat

    Papad katori, papad is a sun-dried rice or lentil based flatbread, which can be deep-fried to make it crispier. It is like the rice papers but a bit more thick. Katori means bowl. So Papad Katori, literally means a bowl made of crisp flatbread.

    Papad Katori

    Papad Katori chat, these crisp bowls are filled with delicious stuffings made of lentils/veggies. Topped with spicy chutneys and crisps. All in all it is an explosion of all flavors served in small cups.

    How to make Papad Katori Chat

    I have tried this recipe with both South-Indian appalam/urad dal papad and also with the spiced papad. The stuffings for the chat can be your choice. I have used a chickpea salad and topped it with crunchy besan and sev.

    Papad Katori Chat filling

    You can also use mashed potatoes, onions, carrots and sesaonings along with some chutneys for the stuffing.

    To make the katori, dip the papad in plate of water for 30 seconds, remove, dab it in cloth to remove the excess water. Now carefully place the wet papad in to a microwave safe bowl and shape it accordng to the bowl. Now microwave cook for 30 seconds.

    Once done, check whether the papad is cooked, there shouldn’t be any wetness, if the papad is still wet at the bottom, microwave cook for another 10 seconds. Remove the microwave bowl out, and carefully remove the papad katori out. Repeat the same for the rest of the papads. Once the papad katori is ready. Fill it with your choice of fillings and serve immediately.

      I too have seen this recipe of papad katori chat and love it. Its not only healthy but delicious too with the chickpea salad. Actually one can add any filling. The only reason I’ve not tried it as yet is due to the lack of a microwave. Your preparation looks so so tempting.
