FAQS
How can I make Dahi Puri gluten-free?
To make Dahi Puri gluten-free, you can substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend or chickpea flour. Ensure that the semolina you use is also gluten-free, as some brands may contain traces of gluten.
What is the best way to store leftover Dahi Puri?
Leftover Dahi Puri can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. However, it's best to store the components separately. Keep the puris, yogurt, and chutneys in separate containers to maintain their texture and flavor.
Can I prepare Dahi Puri in advance for a party?
Yes, you can prepare Dahi Puri in advance by making the puris and storing them in an airtight container. Prepare the fillings and chutneys ahead of time, but assemble the Dahi Puri just before serving to keep the puris crispy.
What are some good side dishes to serve with Dahi Puri?
Dahi Puri pairs well with other Indian street foods like Pani Puri, Bhel Puri, or Aloo Tikki. You can also serve it with a side of spicy potato wedges or a refreshing cucumber salad to balance the flavors.
What can I use instead of yogurt in Dahi Puri for a dairy-free option?
For a dairy-free option in Dahi Puri, you can use coconut yogurt or cashew yogurt as a substitute for regular yogurt. These alternatives will provide a creamy texture while keeping the dish vegan-friendly.
