BHEL PURI|BHEL PURI CHAAT RECIPE

Bhel puri is a popular Mumbai chaat recipe made with a wonderful combo of ingredients. We all love bhel puri and I love to make this at home too. More than me Varsha, my daughter enjoys eating Bhel puri and making it too. When all the ingredients are ready she loves to prepare her own bhel puri as she always love to eat it spicy. So i will mention my specifications and sit back with my favourite book and bhel puri will be served on my hand. Though there will be little mess in the kitchen , still it is always a bliss when someone serves you food.
