Bollywood actress Parineeti Chopra has just made snacking guilt-free and glamorous. She went to Instagram to post a speedy, healthy and totally scrumptious recipe — a protein chaat prepared right at home.
“Eat and show off to people (like I’m doing),” she mentioned in the happy story that put smiles on fans’ faces and growls in their tummies. The recipe, posted on her Instagram story, immediately gathered attention as being easy and earthy.
A Healthy Spin on Chaat with Substitutions
Forget deep-fried street food. Parineeti’s version gives the beloved chaat a nutritious spin. She begins by making mini besan (gram flour) rotis. Instead of frying them, she pops them into the air fryer — crisp, oil-free and golden.
She stacks these crunchy papdis with a good spoonful of Greek dahi, minced onions, sour imli (tamarind) chutney and green chilies. Steamed aloo (potatoes) provides heft, and a sprinkle of black chaat masala completes the dish.
Each mouthful resembles a perfect combination of health and bliss. She also advises, “Eat and show off people (like I am doing).”
Who is Parineeti Chopra?

Fans Love Her Relatable Vibe
Parineeti’s fans adore her for her honesty, warmth, and relatability. Her latest post is no different. With simple ingredients and an even simpler approach, she makes it easy for anyone to recreate this protein chaat at home.
By replacing fried with air-fried, and adding Greek yogurt, she healthifies the street food favourite. It’s a conscious pleasure that doesn’t dip into taste.
