Directions
Step 1
Heat a flat skillet or tawa over medium heat.
Step 2
Lightly brush each papad with a tiny amount of oil or ghee to prevent sticking.

Place one papad on the skillet, pressing it slightly with a spatula to ensure even roasting. Roast each side for about 30-40 seconds or until the papad puffs and turns golden brown. Repeat with all papads.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped onion, tomato, green chili, cilantro, lemon juice, red chili powder, chaat masala, black salt (if using), and regular salt. Mix well to create the topping.
Step 5
Place each roasted papad on a serving plate.
Step 6
Divide the prepared topping evenly among the papads, spreading it over the surface of each one.
Step 7
Serve the chili papads immediately to enjoy their crispy texture and fresh, spicy flavors.
