Holi 2024: 5 Puri Based Snacks To Make For Holi
1.Bhel Puri
Puffed rice, onions, spices, chutneys, and crispy mathri pieces go into this snack. It's a budget-friendly snack that's also convenient to carry. The best part is that we made this delicious meal with common household ingredients.
2.Sev Puri
Sev puri is a traditional Mumbai street snack. It is served on small, spherical, and crispy papdis with a spicy mixture of sev, onions, tomatoes, coriander leaves, diced potatoes, and spices including garlic, green chilli, and tamarind.
3.Moong Dal Puri
The goodness of moong dal is packed into this particular puri dish. The delicious moong dal improves the flavour and texture of this puri to the point where you'll be compelled to finish it! This puri has a similar taste to kachoris and requires less preparation.
4. Pizza Puri
This may sound a bit offbeat, but this indeed makes a delicious snack! In this recipe, you can buy the puris of the gol gappa, but instead of filling it with that spicy paani, mix a bunch of veggies and top it with some cheese. Then, simply bake and serve them!
5. Papdi Chaat
This one is the easiest to make and absolutely delicious to have. All you need to do is take fried flat papdis or puris, mix it with dahi, some spices and finally top it with chutney! A delicious chaat will be ready in no time for you to devour.
So, this Holi, make these delicious delights and let us know which one you liked the best. Happy Holi 2024, everyone!
