Notes
1 Depending on the freshness of your pre-packaged Bhel Mix, you may
2 want to lightly roast the mix in a skillet to make it crispy.
3 The key to adding the right amount of chutneys is that the Bhel
Puri should be lightly coated but not dripping in chutney.
4 If the pre-packaged Bhel Mix is not pre-spiced, you may want to
add additional salt, red chili powder or chaat masala.
