Bhel Puri (Home made- 100%):

I have had bhel puris from shops nearby with the help of basic mix. Here is a perfect my version of bhel puri. It is very simple and spicy snack special for a rainy day accompanied by hot chai.

Ingredients:

Tomato – ½

Chat masala – 1/2 tsp

Water – to make dough

Green Sauce:

Pudina – 1 bunch

Corriander leaves – 1/2 bunch

Green chilli – 2

Ginger – A small piece

Salt – ½ tsp

Method:

• Dice onion and tomatoes finely
• Boil potatoes and keep the aside.

Pappad:

• Mix rava, maida, salt and water and make a dough.
• Make large roti with it and cut out smaller circles from them of desired circle size. Normally that would be a mouthful.
• Fry them in oil and keep them aside.

Green Sauce:

• Grind pudina, Corriander leaves, green chilli, salt and ginger into a fine paste.

Now comes the final makeover.

• Break the pappad into half or into pieces.
• Smash the boiled potatoes and add them.

• Add salt, Chat masala and a pinch of chilli powder and mix them well.
• Add the green sauce on this and serve.
• Can also add ketchup to enhance taste.

Tomato Dosa with Corriander Chutney:

Thanks to my friends who gave me the idea of tomato dosa. It is a quick recipe which will be ready to eat within 2 hours from the initial preparation or even shorter.
Dosa can be done by two methods,
1. With soaked rice
2. By using fermented dough

Ingredients: For two
Rice- 1 cup(250 ml)
Tomato- 2 or 3
Onion- half
Coriander leaves- 1 bunch
Green Chilli-1
Ginger- small clove
Tamarind- small pinch
Cumin seeds- 1 tsp
Salt- for taste
Oil

Procedure:
Dosa: Soak the rice for about an hour and grind it with salt to make dough. Or if you have a fermented dough, it can be used instead of rice.
Boil tomatoes and peel its skin.
Grind tomatoes to make a puree and mix it with rice dough.
Heat the pan and make dosa.

Chutney:

Wash the leaves and grind it with onion, Chilli, ginger, salt and cumin seeds.

This combination is one of the best I have ever tasted. Do try this and pass on your comments.
