Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix flour and salt in a bowl. Gradually add water and knead into a stiff dough. Let rest for 10 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Divide dough into 8 small balls. Roll each into a thin circle about 3 inches in diameter.

  3. Step 3

    Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry each puri individually, gently pressing the center with a spoon to create a hollow cavity. Fry until golden and crispy, about 30 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels.

  4. Step 4

    Mix boiled potatoes and chickpeas with chaat masala and black salt in a small bowl.

  5. Step 5

    Fill each puri cavity with the potato-chickpea mixture, dividing evenly.

  6. Step 6

    Drizzle tamarind chutney and green chutney over each puri.

  7. Step 7

    Top with sev noodles, pomegranate seeds, diced onion, and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately.
