Instructions

Making the Tamarind Chutney

  1. Boil a cup of water in a pan on high flame and add the 2 inch tamarind piece to it. Let it boil for some time.
  2. When the water has completely changed the color and the tamarind has become soft, turn off the flame and keep it aside to cool down.
  3. Then add the tamarind water with the tamarind to the blender. Add salt, a little bit of red chili powder, and chaat masala to it. Blend it into a fine paste.
  4. Then heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan. When it heats up add a tablespoon of cumin seeds and a pinch of Hing to it. When the cumin seeds start crackling, add it to the tamarind chutney.
  5. Our tamarind chutney is ready.

Making the Green Chutney

  1. Finely chop the coriander leaves and mint leaves after washing them thoroughly with water.
  2. Then put them in a blender with half a lemon juice and salt. Blend everything together to form a fine paste.

Making the Bhel Puri

  1. Start by chopping the onions, tomatoes, and green chilly finely. Chop the boiled potato roughly.
  2. Then take a large bowl. Add all the chopped vegetables to it.

  5. Once it cools down add the puffed rice to the large bowl contains the chopped vegetables.
  6. Then add the spice to it. Add one tablespoon of salt, one tablespoon of red chili powder, one tablespoon of chaat masala, and one tablespoon of roasted cumin powder to it. Give it a mix so that everything comes together and combines.
  7. Now it’s time to add the chutneys that we prepared earlier. Add two to three tablespoons of green chutney and tamarind chutney to it. You can add more or less according to your taste. If you like tamarind chutney more, you can add more of that but if you like green chutney more, you can add more of that. It totally depends on you.
  8. Then squeeze half a lemon into it and mix everything nicely.
  9. Give it a final mix properly with a large spoon. Then, at last, add the roasted peanuts and Bhujia to it.
