Method

Step-by-step
  1. Prepare the potatoes: Boil, peel, and gently mash the potatoes. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper if desired. Set aside.
  2. Arrange the puris: Lay out the flat puris on a serving platter. You can gently press the center of each puri to create a slight well.
  3. Assemble the base: Spoon a small amount of mashed potato onto each puri.
  4. Add the chutneys: Drizzle generously with green chutney, sweet tamarind chutney, and the optional spicy red garlic chutney over the potatoes.
  5. Layer the toppings: Sprinkle finely chopped red onion and fresh cilantro over each puri.
  6. Add crunch and flavor: Sprinkle a generous amount of fine sev over all the puris, ensuring they are well covered. Add crushed roasted peanuts if using.
  7. Season and serve: Dust with chaat masala, red chili powder, and roasted cumin powder. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.

Storage & Freezer Guide

Make it last
Refrigerator (Components) 3-4 days

Store chutneys in airtight containers. Boiled potatoes can be stored separately. Puris and sev should be kept at room temperature in airtight containers to maintain crispness.

Freezer Not recommended

Assembled Sev Puri does not freeze well. Chutneys can be frozen for up to 3 months.

Reheat N/A

Sev Puri is best assembled and consumed fresh to enjoy the crispness of the puris and the vibrant flavors. Do not reheat assembled Sev Puri.

Chef’s Corner

  • For best results, prepare all components (chutneys, boiled potatoes, chopped onions) ahead of time. This makes assembly quick and easy just before serving.
  • Adjust the spiciness by varying the amount of green chutney and red chili powder. For a milder version, omit the red garlic chutney.
  • Ensure your puris are fresh and crisp. If they’ve lost their crunch, you can lightly toast them in a dry pan for a few seconds before assembling.
  • Experiment with toppings! You can add finely chopped tomatoes, boiled chickpeas, or even a sprinkle of grated raw mango for extra zing.
