Instructions
 

Prepare the Basket Dough

  • Combine all-purpose flour, semolina, melted butter, and salt in a bowl. Gradually add water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms.

Shape and Bake the Baskets

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease mini muffin tins with oil. Roll out small portions of the dough and carefully press them into the muffin cups, ensuring they cover the sides completely. Twist the dough slightly at the top of each cup to create a basket shape.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Assemble the Chaat

  • Once the baskets are cool, gently remove them from the muffin tins.

Layer the Filling

  • On a serving plate, spread a layer of plain yogurt. Top with grated cucumber, grated beetroot, and halved grapes.

Add the Crunch and Spice

  • Place a baked basket on top of the layered filling. Fill the basket with boiled potato cubes and papdi. Sprinkle with black salt, chaat masala, black pepper, and coconut sugar.

Garnish and Serve

  • Drizzle with sweet chutney and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for the Perfect Basket Chaat

  • For extra crispy baskets, you can brush them with a little oil before baking.
  • If you don’t have mini muffin tins, you can use small ramekins or even create small bowls from aluminum foil.
  • Feel free to customize the filling with other vegetables like finely chopped onions or tomatoes.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red chili powder to the chaat masala.
