Bhel Puri | Indian Bombay Chaat | Bhel Chaat Recipe with Tamarind & Mint Chutney

puffed rice

🥗Healthier: whole grain puffed rice

💰Cheaper: corn puffs

Whole grain options are more nutritious, while corn puffs can be more budget-friendly.

sev

🥗Healthier: baked sev

💰Cheaper: crushed tortilla chips

Baked sev reduces calories, and crushed tortilla chips are often cheaper.

Start by preparing the ingredients: 2 medium sized potatoes boiled and cut up, 2 medium sized onions finely chopped, and 2 medium sized tomatoes finely chopped.

In a mixing bowl, add the puffed rice (which is already slightly toasted).

Add the boiled and cut potatoes to the bowl.

Next, add the finely chopped onions and tomatoes.

Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of cumin powder, 1 teaspoon of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of black salt, and 1 teaspoon of chaat masala.

Add the mint and coriander chutney and the tamarind and date chutney to the mixture.

Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon.

Add a few moon bean sprouts and a little bit of roasted peanuts to the bowl.

Finish with some chopped coriander leaves and sev on top.

Toss all the ingredients together gently to combine without crushing the puffed rice.

Serve immediately in small bowls or paper cones, as the puffed rice can get soggy if not eaten right away.
