Key Ingredients
Puri is the main ingredient for this homemade dahi puri. I use homemade puris but store-bought ready-to-use would also work just fine.
Dahi, plain yougurt/homemade curd is one of the main ingredients and it is mildly sweetened and kept chilled until the chaat is ready to be served.
We will be using Sweet Tamarind Chutney and Spicy Green Chutney, both essential chaat chutney recipes that can turn any chaat recipe quite flavorful.
Puris are stuffed with a mildly spiced Boiled Potatoes, Finely Chopped Onions, Cilantro.
Roasted Cumin Powder, Chaat Masala Powder and Black Salt are sprinkled on top of the prepared chat.

Prepare sweet tamarind chutney and green chutney ahead of time to save time and we are ready to make the chaat anytime.
Dahi for dahi puri should be fresh, thick and not-sour. Using cold and chilled yogurt to dahi puri makes it really delicious.
Make the chaat only when it is ready to be served, else the puris will go soggy.
Substitutions & Variations
Apart from stuffing the puris with mildly spiced boiled potatoes, boiled black chana can also be used.
Add some pomegranate arils to the puris after filling them with yogurt/dahi, for some burst of sweet flavors.
Adjust the amount of sweet and spicy chutneys depending on taste & spice preferences.
Serving Suggestions
Dahi Puri Chaat should be served immediately after being made and it can be served as a snack or an appetizer. Puris stay crisp when made but if left, they go soggy. All the ingredients including puris and potato filling can be prepared ahead, refrigerated and can be quickly made into chaat just before serving.
