Dahi Puri Recipe How To Make Dahi Dahi Sev Batata Puri

Having spent my entire childhood in Mumbai, some flavours always linger in your palate and one always looks for them even when they grow up. Oh what can I say about this Cooler Street Food. It’s got all the goodness of Yogurt and sweet, sour, spicy flavors from the chutney’s. The flavours are absolutely refreshing and healthy too. The filler’s that goes inside the puri’s is entirely your choice, right from sprouts to mildly spiced potato or a mixture of chickpeas and potato. What not!!

What is Dahi Puri / Dahi Batata Puri?

Dahi is Yogurt. Batata is Potatoes and Puri is round and crispy used to containing the chaat. This Dahi Puri Chaat is also known as Dahi Sev Puri Chaat.. And hence we use Sev { Thin Gram flour noodles } in this recipe. I do use 2 Chutney’s in the preparation - Green Chutney also known as Coriander chutney and Red Chutney also known as Tamarind Chutney. Some people also add Garlic based chutney to this recipe. Chaat { Indian Street Food } is my comfort zone and I thoroughly enjoy preparing them. Some elements of the chaat have to layered in the same way every time and there can be no alterations to it like the green chutney, dates chutney and the final elements. Only element that is allowed some sort of leeway are the filling. Our family friends absolutely love Chaat , that I bring together in a plate and they look forward, when I would plan for a Chaat party. We had unlimited Pani Puri for starters for my daughter’s second birthday party and it was absolutely mind blowing. Its wasn’t a hooligan task to make the chaat ingredients before the party..Just had to make the Pani concoction in a concentrated form and add enough cold water before the party. Another Mumbaikar like me, a close friend in our gang helped me serve pani puri’s non stop like the telawala’s. My !! What an evening it was ! Followed by Pani Puri, my menu was completed with Mumbai’s Pav Bhaji.
