Healthy Eating: Protein Papdi Chaat

protein papdi chaat

Chaats refer to a lip smacking delicacy made by bringing together a range of rustic masalas and chutneys. Isn’t there something about Indian Chaats that makes our mouth water instantly, just by thinking about them? For the longest time we have associated a plate of chat dripping with curd and chutneys to an unhealthy indulgence. But what if I were to tell you that chaats can be really beneficial to your health? Let’s try this healthy Protein Papdi Chaat recipe. 

What You Will Need 

For the papdi 

  • Wheat flour – 1 cup 
  • Soya flour – 1 cup 
  • Rava (semolina) – 1 cup 
  • Besan (chana flour) – 1 cup 
  • Ajwain (carom seeds) – 1 tsp 
  • Regular spices according to taste preference such as haldi, lal mirch powder, dhaniya powder and salt
  • Oil – 1 tbsp

For assembling the chaat 

  • Boiled chana – ½ cup 
  • Boiled corn – ½ cup 
  • Boiled potato (finely diced) – ½ cup 
  • Tomato (finely diced) – ½ cup
  • Onion (finely diced) – ½ cup
  • Cucumber (finely diced) – ½ cup
  • Carrot (finely grated) – ½ cup 
  • Pomegranate seeds – ½ cup 
  • Dry roasted peanuts and chana – ½ cup 
  • Curd – ½ cup 
  • Tamarind dates chutney – 1 tbsp 
  • Coriander mint chutney – 1 tbsp 
  • Chaat masala – 2 pinches 

How To Prepare 

  1. Knead a stiff dough of the papdi ingredients (all flours, all spices and a teaspoon of oil).
  2. Roll this dough into a big flat thin sheet and cut diamond shapes with a shankar para cutter or knife. You can also cut it into small discs with a cookie cutter.
  3. Brush these diamonds or discs of dough with the remaining oil and bake for 12 minutes at 1800c. Your protein rich papdi is ready. Store in an airtight jar.
  4. While making the chaat, break some of these papdi roughly with your hand into a bowl.
  5. Assemble all the other ingredients of the chaat into this bowl.
  6. Garnish with some chopped coriander leaves and chaat masala and serve immediately.

Benefits of the Protein Papdi Chaat 

  • This Protein Papdi Chaat is wholesome, delicious and can aid weight loss
  • Can prove to be a very sumptuous meal addition to your healthy yet tasty diet
  • The fresh ingredients and mix of spices make it super rich in vitamins, minerals and essential digestive properties. 
  • It is rich in fiber and protein, both of which induce a feeling of fullness and prevent overeating or resorting to fried and sugary preparations that are fattening.

Healthy Eating: Skinny Sev Puri

healthy eating

Every now and then, we often pass a bhelpuri vendor and find ourselves tempted beyond measure. While the weather seems great and eating bhel or sev puri might seem harmless, it can give you enough calories which you will have to burn by being physically active for more than an hour.

More so, consuming any eatables from outdoor vendors during the rainy season might not be a good idea as this is the perfect season for the E Coli bacteria to breed. But yes, this doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your favourite “Chaat” at home! I’ve prepared the perfect Skinny Sev Puri recipe that will leave you wanting for more!

It is called skinny because it won’t make you fat or sick!

What You Will Need

  • Cucumber – 1 Medium sized (thick slices)
  • Tomato – 1 Medium sized (finely chopped)
  • Onion – 1 Medium sized (finely chopped)
  • Freshly chopped coriander
  • Partially Boiled Sprouted Mung – ½ Cup
  • Curd – ½ Cup
  • Honey – 1 tsp
  • Green Chillies – 1 or 2 (finely chopped)
  • Crushed Khakhra – 2 tbsp
  • Salt, chat masala, red chilli powder – As per taste

How To Prepare Skinny Sev Puri

  1. Take a bowl and add the sprouted mung, curd, honey, tomato, onion, coriander, green chilies, salt, chat masala and mix well
  2. Take a plate and place the thick cucumber slices on it
  3. Using a spoon, place the mixed stuffing on the cucumber slices.
  4. Top it up with crushed Khakhara for crunch along with some chilli powder

So here is your very simple and healthy chaat recipe!

Please Note: As cucumber forms the base and if you are allergic to it, you can use tomato slices, zucchini, partially boiled beetroot slices or radish slices.

Highlights

  • It is a very low-calorie snack and helps you stay away from the trans-fat found in fried puris
  • It is rich in fiber and balanced protein
  • Can be prepared quickly and is perfect for people who love fancy mid meals
