Ingredients

2 cups Puffed Rice murmura, pori

Vegetables

¼ cup Carrot grated
1 Tomato chopped
¼ cup Onion chopped
3 tbsp Cilantro chopped
3 tbsp Cucumber chopped
1 Potato optional
1 Green chili chopped

Chutneys

1 tbsp Sweet Chutney
1 tbsp Green Chutney

Spices

1 tsp Jal Jeera Masala heaped
1 tsp Chaat Masala heaped
1 tsp Black Salt heaped
1 tsp Amchur Powder heaped

Other ingredients

4 Papdi
2 tsp Lemon Juice
3 tbsp Sev
3 tbsp Peanuts roasted
3 tbsp Garbanzo Beans optional, I used the canned ones

Instructions

Prep Work

Chop the onion, cilantro, green chilly and cucumber.
I usually remove the pulp of the tomato and chop them.
Peel the carrot skin and grate them.
Boil the potato in your preferred way and mash them up.
If the murmura or puffed rice is not crisp, dry roast for a couple of minutes or sun dry them for about 1 hour.

Steps

Take the murmura in wide bowl.
Add all the chopped veggies.
Then the chutneys, dry masalas, sev and mix well.
Before serving, add the lemon juice and serve.
That’s it. Bhel puri is ready.

Notes

You can skip papadi and use tortilla chips or ritz crackers.
You can skip green chilly and use more green chutney or you can do the other way round as well.
Adjust the masalas and spices as per your preference.
I used black salt instead of regular salt. You can use half and half of both or either one.
You can also use sprouted green mung beans, moth beans, or black chickpeas instead of garbanzo beans.
