Sev Puri

Another one of the quickies, which gets ready in a jiffy, and can be served to any of your surprise guests :P
I was born in Kerala and bought up in Mumbai, thus Chaats are very much a part of my staple diet...i love gobbling on the pani puri's by the roadside or the sweet chatni wala bhel..

here goes my version of sev puri

Ingredients:
Puri---available from the local stores
Khajoor imli ki chutney(boil seedless date, add tamarind pulp, salt, sugar/jaggery, amchoor powder, blend it)
Coriander mint chutney(bunch of coriander + half quantity of mint+ green chilly+ salt+ ginger piece)
Boiled Potatoes
Sev, boondi
Onion, tomato, coriander leaves finely chopped
Chana dal

Steps:
1) Take the puri, put in the mashed potato, put coriander chutney, khajoor chutney
2) Garnish it with sev, boondi, onion, and tomato...

During summer season, when i can get hold of raw mango, i do add finely chopped pieces of it, along with onion and tomato, the tangy flavor rocks
For a healthy version you can also put in sprouts...when i am bored with sev puri, i more or less follow the same recipe with Pani puri wala round puri, and call it as masala puri...
Masala puri is equally famous as a chaat in Mumbai
