Cilantro Leaves — Chopped cilantro leaves are used for garnishing this fantastic recipe and make it look more gorgeous and super tempting.

Potatoes — Fried potatoes make the recipe more filling and add more flavor to it. Green chili — This irresistible recipe gets its heat from the chopped green chilies.

Versatile recipe — This recipe is versatile and can be customized according to one’s liking. You can fill the katoris with any filling that fascinates you. You can make aloo tikkis chaat, dahi bhalla chaat, sprouts salad chaat, chickpea salad chaat, corn chaat, paneer burji filling, kala chana chaat, or tex-mex salad too. Keep experimenting with the endless options and dig into a new recipe each time. Swap the yogurt — You can replace yogurt with other dairy-free and vegan options, and your recipe will still taste gorgeous. Follow the temperature chart — Temperature is vital for making the best recipe that flaunts perfectly crispy and browned bread katoris. If you bake the bread katoris at a lower or higher temperature than recommended, they will either get overly crispy or burnt. So, to make the bread katoris that are perfectly crisp and browned, follow the temperature chart. For the crispiest katoris — To get the crispiest bread katoris, roll the bread thinly. Thick katoris will not turn crisp, and the recipe will not taste as attractive as it should. Use canned chickpeas — You can use canned chickpeas to save the soaking and boiling time. Drain the aquafaba (the brine water preserved chickpeas) and use the chickpeas as stated below. Fixing the sourness in yogurt — If your yogurt tastes sour, add a tablespoon of sugar to sweeten the yogurt and whisk until completely dissolved. Yogurt drizzled on top of the Katori chaat should have a thin, batter-like consistency, making the recipe drool-worthy.
Add chutneys when serving — You can add the dry filling to the katoris, and it will not harm the crispiness of the katoris. However, the chutneys and wet ingredients like curd should be added later while serving only. If added early, they will turn the katoris soggy. For baking in the air fryer — When baking your katoris in the air fryer, use the mini tart pans for this purpose. These will make perfect katoris for the recipe. For baking in the oven — If you are baking the bread katoris in the oven, arrange all the tart molds on the baking tray and bake at 350 degrees for 8 – 10 minutes or until they are crisp and perfectly golden.
