Vrat ki papdi chat is a crunchy and deep fried snack made with kuttu flour or buckwheat flour which is eaten during fasting or vrat. This is a vegan and gluten-free snack too and I am sharing a baked version. To make chat use any vegan curd and it will make a delicious vegan chat recipe. Vrat ki papdi is again a different style of eating to break the monotony of traditional fasting food. Vrat ki papdi chat is a tangy, savory snack with tamarind chutney, green chutney, and curd. Sprinkled cumin seed powder and red chili powder (if allowed in fasting) and served at room temperature.
As the name says vrat ki papdi means the flour used in making papdis are kuttu(buckwheat flour) or rajgira flour (Amarnath flour) or singhada flour(water chestnut flour). These flours are allowed to eat during fasting days. This time I created a Navratri meal plan with many farali recipes which can be enjoyed with the whole family without fuss. Definitely, kids are involved. My kids love all these delicacies and ate without cribbing.
Vrat ki papdi can be deep fried or baked. I am here with the baked version, however, you can deep fry them on medium flame. Millet flours are very healthy as compared to refined flour. During this Navratri fasting days, I explored a few new recipes and believe me my kids were very happy.
