Randeri Aloo Puri ~ A Surati Street Food

Randeri Aloo Puri is a popular Surati street food that is a typical chat and chat loves will enjoy this much! These are small pooris topped with white peas gravy and other chat items to make a sinful delight.

When I chanced on this street food, I was sure I am going to make it. First of all, it met my need to make the main course in the theme, and also knew my kids will love it as it has all chat items topped on it. Second, my surati paratha that would be the main dish featured didn’t turn out as pretty as I expected. So I plan to make it again.

Coming back to the Aloo Puri, I saw many videos that showed how they make it and finally settled on a mix of these recipes to make it at home.

All of us simply loved this one, it can double as a main course too if you plan it well ahead. In all the themes I made for this Mega BM, this street food was a total hit apart from the platters.

Today is the last of the Street Food, next week is going to be some simple everyday meal that is literally going to be very simple. On C4AS, it a delicious breakfast platter made without rice, do check out.

Step By Step Pictures for making Aloo Puri

Ingredients used for making Aloo Puri

The puris are mini sized ones, so roll out a big one, and using a small cutter you can cut out many at one time.

The gravy is not very spicy, so use the green chili chutney very liberally if you want it spicy. Some videos showed only with green chilies, I used coriander leaves as well.
