2. Don't Mix Immediately

Bhel puri consists of dry and wet ingredients. If you mix immediately, the dry ones can end up soaking up excess moisture from the wet ones.

3. Don't Add Excess Chutney

Chutneys help add flavour to the bhel puri, but be mindful of how much you add. Add only as much as required to ensure it doesn't get soggy.

4. Drain Excess Moisture

Like chutney, other ingredients in the bhel puri, such as sprouts, can add moisture too. Always drain the moisture from them before adding.
