Directions for Gol Gappa Chaat Recipe
- Main ingredient of Gol Gappa Chaat Recipe are gol gappas. Let us start by looking at how to make them.
- Take Maida, suji and oil in any utensil and mix these contents properly. With the help of water, knead a dough for hard Puri (press dough well while kneading). Cover the dough and leave it aside for 15-20 mins to ferment and rise.
- Break a big round (guava sized) piece off the dough, roll this round piece into a circle. With the help of a small lid, cut as many round puris possible, take the small circles and keep them on a plate.
- Mix the dough that is leftover to the main dough and repeat the same process till you have made puris of the entire dough. Now take one puri at a time and roll it a little making it thinner. You can roll them length-wise to make long puri or circular to make round puris.
- Heat the oil on medium-high heat. Start frying the puris, starting first with the puri you first rolled.
- Put one puri in the oil and press lightly. When it puffs turn over and put another puri in the oil. Keep adding 6-8 puris at a time. Fry the puris until they are golden-brown all around by turning a few times. You may adjust the heat as needed while frying.
- Take the puris out and place over a paper towel, so the excess oil is absorbed.
- Peel the boiled potato and cut into small cubes. Add some salt into it and mix it well. With the help of a finger make a hole in the each gol gappa and stuff the potato cubes. You can also stuff sprouts and boiled kala chana in the gol gappas.
- Whisk the yoghurt well with sugar and salt as to taste.
- Place gol gappas on a plate and cover with yoghurt.

- Garnish with coriander/mint leaves, red chilli powder and chat masala and your Gol Gappa Chaat is ready to be served and devoured immediately. This recipe can be a great idea for any get-together.
