Papdi ( For Chaat)

What’s chaat without papdi? Indeed, this crisp, disc-shaped savoury is a must-have on any chaat counter, because it adds an exciting crunch to many a chaat preparation including bhel puri, dahi papdi chaat, and so on. The best part about this semolina plus wheat flour papdi is that it does not get soggy too soon, so you can feel its magic till the very last spoonful!

I tried this recipe. The papdi got crisp from sides, but the centre stayed white and was not crisp. Kindly give me the suggestions how the centre can also be made crisp.

   This could be due to rolling being not uniform. Use a thick rolling pin to give uniform pressure while rolling.
