Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Prepare the Masala Paste

   Take a mixer jar. Add grated coconut, mint leaves, green chillies, coriander leaves, khas khas, coriander powder, jeera, pepper powder, cinnamon, cloves, star anise, tamarind, garlic, ginger, chat masala, gram dal, and salt. Add a little water and grind all ingredients to a fine, smooth paste.

2. 2.Fry the Masala

   Heat 1.5 tablespoons of oil in a kadai (wok). Add the ground masala paste to the hot oil. Fry the masala on high flame, stirring continuously, until the oil separates from the masala and a fragrant aroma is released. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

3. 3.Simmer the Masala Gravy

   Reduce the flame to low. Add water to the fried masala to achieve your desired consistency (thin or thick). Bring the masala gravy to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once it boils, remove from heat. This masala can be stored for 3-4 days.

4. 4.Prepare the Puris

   Take a serving plate. Crush 10-12 puris into small pieces and spread them evenly on the plate.

5. 5.Add Green Peas and Masala

   Sprinkle boiled green peas over the crushed puris. Then, pour the hot masala gravy generously over the peas and puris.

6. 6.Add Fresh Toppings

   Add chopped tomato pieces and chopped onion pieces over the masala.

7. 7.Drizzle Chutneys

   Drizzle sweet chutney and green chutney over the toppings according to your preference.

8. 8.Final Garnish

   Sprinkle chat masala and fine sev generously over the Masala Puri. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves. Optionally, squeeze a little lemon juice for extra tanginess. Serve immediately and enjoy!
