Dont we all love the Gaadi Panipuri and the Masala Puri?????I for sure do.
When in India my cousins and I would also go this local place and we'd call it kolle (dirty) panipuri coz the place was small,dingy and we thought it looked dirty but what the hell we'd go anywhere for some good pani puri/chaat.
Today my friends K ,small S and myself got together to make papdi chat.(missed you big S) .....first we argued that the papdi was to be made with rice flour finally we decided to use wheat flour.We then started the never ending process of rolling out the dough,cutting it and frying it......long process but well worth it.
We took about an hour to fry around 60 papdis and there we gone in seconds when we served it.

Papdis,Mint chutney,Tamrind Chutney,Store bought Sev,1 cup Potato Masala ,1 cup onions,1/2 cup tomatoes,1/4 cup grated carrots,1/4 cup yogurt,2 tbsp lime juice
