Masala puri
Masala Puri is a popular street food dish originating from the Indian subcontinent, specifically the South Indian region. It is a type of chaat, which is a savory snack that is typically served at roadside tracks from stalls or food carts in India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bangladesh.
Ingredients[edit | edit source]
The main ingredients of Masala Puri include puri (a type of fried bread), peas, tamarind, jaggery, and various spices. The puris are crushed and mixed with the other ingredients to create a flavorful dish. The dish is often garnished with coriander leaves and sev, a type of crunchy noodle made from chickpea flour paste.
Preparation[edit | edit source]
The preparation of Masala Puri involves cooking peas with a blend of spices to make a thick gravy. The puris are then crushed and soaked in this gravy. The dish is typically served hot and is often garnished with tamarind chutney, sev, diced onions, and coriander leaves.
Variations[edit | edit source]
There are several regional variations of Masala Puri. In some regions, additional ingredients like potatoes, tomatoes, or cucumbers may be added. The spices used can also vary, with some versions using garam masala, chaat masala, or other spice blends.
