Worked solution

Answer: Papad is made up of urad, saboodana, potato, etc. To make saboodana papad we have to rinse it in water and grind it. By adding salt and all the spices required, we mix it up. Then we cover it with a moist cloth and leave it to dry in the sun. Finally, we deep fry and the papad is ready.

For chutney, let us take groundnuts and with all the required spices and salt. We grind it up according to one’s required taste and thus, chutney can be prepared.
