Sev Puri recipe, Sukha sev Puri, Street Style Sev Puri
Sev Puri, an emblem of Indian street food, is a beloved and iconic snack that tantalizes taste buds with its explosive medley of textures and flavors. Whether relished as Sukha Sev Puri or simply Street Style Sev Puri, it offers a vibrant culinary experience, perfect for a quick bite or a hearty indulgence. Its popularity spans across cities and towns, where vendors meticulously craft each plate, delivering a burst of sweet, spicy, tangy, and savory notes in every bite.
At the core of Sev Puri are its foundational components, designed to create a delightful textural contrast. The dish starts with 24 crisp papdis (chaat), serving as the perfect crunchy base. These are generously topped with 24 tsp of boiled and mashed potatoes, providing a soft and comforting counterpoint. The addition of 12 tsp of finely chopped onion introduces a sharp, fresh bite, while a sprinkle of chaat masala elevates the overall savory profile, setting the stage for the layers of flavor to come.
The true soul of Sev Puri, however, lies in its trio of exquisite chutneys, each playing a vital role in the flavor symphony. Khajur imli ki chutney (24 tsp) contributes a luscious sweet and tangy depth, characteristic of dates and tamarind. A fiery kick comes from 12 tsp of green chutney, packed with herbs and green chilies. Completing the trio, 12 tsp of fresh garlic chutney adds a pungent, aromatic punch. A final drizzle of 2 tsp of lemon juice brightens all the flavors, cutting through the richness with a refreshing zest.
The assembly of Sev Puri is a quick, theatrical process, often performed right before the customer's eyes. It begins with arranging 6 papdis on a serving plate. Each papdi is then carefully layered with 1 tsp of mashed potato and ½ tsp of finely chopped onions, followed by a light dusting of chaat masala. Next, each papdi receives a dollop of 1 tsp of khajur imli ki chutney, ½ tsp of green chutney, and ½ tsp of garlic chutney, ensuring a burst of flavors in every mouthful.
The finishing touches are crucial for both texture and visual appeal. A generous sprinkle of nylon sev (24 tsp)covers each papdi, adding a delicate crunch that contrasts beautifully with the soft potato and tangy chutneys. For garnish, the plates are adorned with 4 tbsp of finely chopped coriander (dhania), lending freshness and color, and 2 tbsp of finely chopped raw mango, which provides a delightful sour counterpoint, enhancing the overall vibrant taste.
The magic of Sev Puri is best experienced the moment it's prepared. It is essential to serve immediately after assembly to ensure the papdis retain their crispness before they soften from the moisture of the chutneys. Each bite of this Street Style Sev Puri is a multi-sensory journey—the initial crunch of the papdi, followed by the soft potato, the zesty chutneys, and the refreshing garnishes, creating an explosion of authentic Indian street food flavors that leaves you craving for more.

One of my favourite snack and one of my favourite Tarla Dalal recipe too! It tastes just like the roadside version of Mumbai streets..... The chutneys, which are the essence of this snack, are awesome... Papdis, thiugh were not made by me at home. I bought them ready made.... but my family enjoyed it thoroughly.
