Dahi Puri

Dahi Puri is one of famous  street food in India  After a round of spicy pani puris, eating dahi puris is the perfect way to soothe your palate. "dahi puris" are a favourite with children as well as with adults who cannot handle the fiery pani puri. What makes a dahipuri truly divine is obviously the humble curds which are made daily in every indian household. The curds have to be fresh and chilled and most importantly of the right consistency i. e. Neither too thick or too thin. If your curds are not very fresh, add a few tablespoons of milk to cut down the sharp acidic taste. Save the semi puffed (half puffed) or damaged puris which cannot be used for serving pani puri to make dahi puri.
