Kutchi Dabeli | Chaat Recipes

Homade Dabeli Recipe
If you like chaat then Dabeli is no exception though not popular in South India, Dabeli is one of best chaat recipe.  All the chutneys, potato filling, pomegranate and peanuts makes it sweet, tangy, spicy and crunchy, a very filling sandwich.   Originated from Kutch region of Gujarat and that’s why it’s called Kutchi  Dabeli.  Dabeli means pressed or in hindi dabana is pressing, so its basically do the filling, press and eat :) 

Easy homemade Dabeli Chaat Recipe
Dabeli was introduced to me by DH and in his place there are some very good Dabeli road side vendors.  I made this time dabeli everything from scratch, that is including the pav, sev, dabeli masala etc, you can get ready made stuff too.  If you want to make dabeli  from scratch my advice is make pav a day or two before, keep all the chutney, dabeli masala ready too by previous day.  On the day make potato filling, do the assembly and enjoy this delicious chaat, otherwise you might end up doing so many things that, it will be tiring.  Have these as breakfast, evening snack or dinner the choice is yours but whenever you going to eat this you are going to enjoy.  It’s makes a great party or potluck recipe, as I said just do the prep work before.  Though word of caution is you can’t stop at one, so be prepared for it.  So here is my version of Dabeli for you.
