There's something about snacks that raises our excitement levels every time. Be it kebabs, samosas, pakodas, or tikkas, we always find reasons to indulge in them, don't we? Since they bring us so much happiness, we are also constantly on the lookout for new snack recipes. Of course, there are some classic snacks that we always fall back on. But what's life without some experimentation? If you're in a similar mood, then keep on reading! As the weekend is right here, it's the perfect opportunity to explore the hidden chef inside you. And don't worry; there is no complicated cooking involved. All you need are a handful of ingredients and a bit of creativity. Here, we present to you a shining example that is a result of such experimentation: palak patta chaat bites.
What Are Palak Patta Chaat Bites?
As the name suggests, this chaat is bite-sized in shape. Unlike regular chaat, which is served on a large platter along with all the toppings, this one can be enjoyed separately as a mini snack. The palak leaves are coated with besan batter and then deep-fried to perfection. Their small size makes them easier to eat and serve at parties. You can adjust the amount of yogurt and chutney you add on top of it as per your preference. It's one of those snacks that, once you start eating, you won't be able to stop at just one. Think of it as a version of chips, but only a lot more delicious with its tantalising flavours.
