Papdi is a base for many chaat items and is easily available in the market. But it is also very easy to make it at home and it tastes better than the store bought ones. Here is a simple recipe for home made papdis. I will be posting some interesting chaats in my other blog.

1. Mix together flour, salt, nigella seeds and oil in a bowl.
2. Add water to make a stiff dough.
3. Cover and set it aside for 30 minutes.
4. Knead the dough to make it soft and smooth.
5. Divide it into small balls.
6. Roll each ball into a thin disc.
7. Cut out small circles using a cookie cutter or bottle cap.
