Method:

Take maida, rawa and salt in a mixing bowl and mix well. Add water little by little and knead it to a soft pliable dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth, and keep it aside for half an hour.

After half an hour, again knead the dough for couple of minutes. Make 2 equal size balls out of the dough. Using a rolling pin, first knead one ball of dough to a thin chapati. Using a bottle lid or cookie cutter, cut the dough into many circles.

Remove the extra dough and take only the small papdis. Using a fork, prick the each papdi on both the sides. This is to prevent the papdi to puff up in the oil

Repeat the above step for the rest of the dough. Heat oil in a pan. When the oil is hot enough, add 4-5 papdis gently in the oil

Fry the papdis in medium flame till they are crisp and becomes slightly golden color. Remove the papdis and place it in a bowl with a tissue paper to drain excess oil.

Now the crispy papdis are ready to make Chaat dishes. We can store the papdis in an air-tight container andwe can use it for a week
