Treat your ingredients with care...

• Potatoes — Make sure to boil the potatoes until they are soft and easily mashable.
• Sprouts — You can use any sprouts of your choice, such as mung bean sprouts or mixed sprouts.
• Sev — Look for thin and crispy sev for the best texture in the dish.
• Puri — If you prefer, you can also use store-bought puris instead of making them from scratch.
• Chutneys — Adjust the amount of chutneys according to your taste preferences.

Tips & Tricks

• To save time, you can prepare the chutneys in advance and store them in the refrigerator.
• Serve Dahi Puri immediately after assembling to maintain the crispiness of the puris.
• Customize the level of spiciness by adjusting the amount of mint-coriander chutney and tamarind chutney.
• For a healthier version, you can use low-fat yogurt or Greek yogurt.
• Experiment with different toppings such as pomegranate seeds or finely chopped onions for added flavor and texture.

Serving advice

Dahi Puri is best enjoyed as a snack or appetizer. Serve it on a platter and encourage your guests to assemble their own puris, adding their preferred amount of chutneys and toppings. This interactive serving style adds an element of fun to the dining experience.

Presentation advice

Arrange the filled puris on a vibrant serving platter, garnished with a sprinkle of sev and fresh coriander leaves. The colorful chutneys and toppings will make the dish visually appealing. Serve alongside small bowls of extra chutneys for those who prefer an extra kick of flavor.
