Tips & Secrets
- Roasting the puffed rice just before mixing is the absolute secret to preventing your Bhel Puri from becoming soggy rapidly.
- Adding the chutneys at the very last second is mandatory to maintain the signature crunch of the sev and puffed rice.
- Using a variety of textures like crunchy sev, soft potatoes, and juicy tomatoes is crucial for a experience.
- Serve immediately; even a minute's delay can make the puffed rice absorb moisture from the chutneys and lose its appeal.
