Instructions
Prepare the Cone Dough
- Combine whole wheat flour, sunflower oil, carom seeds, salt, and water to form a smooth dough. Knead for 5-7 minutes and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Prepare the Spiced Potatoes (Masala Aloo)
- In a bowl, combine boiled and grated potatoes, black salt, lemon juice, chopped cilantro, tamarind chutney, mint chutney, red chili powder, and chaat masala. Mix well.
Prepare the Frozen Yogurt Topping
- In a separate bowl, whisk together hung curd, black salt, roasted cumin powder, powdered sugar, and salt. Pour into a shallow, freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Make the Kala Khatta Pearls
- In a saucepan, combine carrot juice (or grated carrot), soaked agar agar, kala khatta sharbat, sugar, and lemon juice. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the agar agar dissolves completely. The mixture should have a slightly syrupy consistency.
Set the Kala Khatta Pearls
- Using a syringe (without the needle) or a dropper, carefully drop the agar-agar mixture into a bowl of chilled oil. The pearls will sink to the bottom. Once all the mixture is dropped, remove the pearls using a slotted spoon, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
Assemble the Cones
- Roll out small portions of the dough into thin circles. Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut into thin strips. Apply water to one edge of the strip, and wrap it tightly around an aluminum cone, wetting the dough as you go. Bake the cones at 170°C (340°F) for 7-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, you can fry them in hot oil until golden brown.
Fill and Garnish the Cones
- Once the cones are cool, carefully remove the aluminum. Add a small amount of tamarind chutney to the bottom of each cone. Fill with the spiced potato mixture using a spoon or a piping bag. Top with mint chutney, a scoop of the frozen yogurt, and finally garnish generously with Kala Khatta pearls. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Cone Papdi Chaat
- For extra crispy cones, try using a mix of whole wheat and all-purpose flour.
- If you don't have kala khatta sharbat, you can use a combination of lime juice, tamarind paste, and a pinch of black salt to create a similar tart flavor.
- Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference for spiciness.
- To make the process easier, use pre-made tamarind and mint chutneys. They are widely available in Indian grocery stores.
