I show you how to make dahi puri at home as this is far healthier than having it on the street. The quality of ingredients used are of much higher quality and this recipe is not very complicated if you have deep fried puris and chutney on hand. Here we have stuffed the puri only with potatoes but you can add boiled sprouts or boondi if you wish to. Also, if you are a jain don’t be disheartened as you can make the similar recipe by swapping potatoes with ragda or boondi.
What makes a dahi batata puri truly divine is obviously the humble curds which are made daily in every Indian household. The curds have to be fresh and chilled and most importantly of the right consistency i.e. neither too thick nor too thin.
Save the semi puffed (half puffed) or damaged puris which cannot be used for serving pani puri to make dahi batata puri. Also, make sure to serve the dahi batata puri as soon as it is assembled or it will turn soggy.
