Bhel puri is a puffed rice dish with potatoes and a tangy tamarind chutney..its a type of chaat particularly identified with Mumbai beach...Bhelpuri is prepared across India with many different names...The ingredients include diced boiled potatoes, tamarind and dates chutney,with sev, chopped onions, chopped tomatoes etc..Bhelpuri was originally from Gujarat and its a fast food item, later they got merged with mumbai culture and became synonymous with Mumbai..There are two popular chutneys are used to prepare this bhelpuri, one is dark sweet chutney made mainly with dates and tamarind and the another one is spicy green chutney made with coriander leaves and green chillies...I went once to Mumbai, but i have tasted few mumbai chaat foods since am a great fan of chaat foods..After a long hesitation i prepared both sweet and spicy chutney and prepared this bhelpuri for RCI-Mumbai Street Foods guest hosted by Aquadaze of Served With Love, event started by Lakshmi....
