Hot and crispy puri, paired with a warm bowl of aloo sabzi, is enough to soothe our soul. Puri-aloo ki sabiz makes one perfect breakfast meal for every foodie. If you explore, you will actually find this desi combo to be an integral part of every regional food culture. While North Indians relish bedmi puri with aloo rasedar, people in Bengal swear by luchi and sada aloo torkari (aloo sabzi without haldi). People in South India enjoy puri and aloo ki sabzi to the core. Alongside dosa, idli, upma and uttapam, puri-sabzi is one of the most popular breakfast staples among the locals. Visit any South Indian household, you will find puri and aloo sabzi holding a constant position in the meal spread.
However, what makes the South Indian version of puri sabzi standout in the lot is the inclusion of unique spices in the recipe.

It is soothing, aromatic and extremely flavourful.
