Mexican Dahi Puri – this crispy, savory, chatpata take on Indian street food is sure to be a hit! With fresh crunchy veggies, a sweet-tangy yogurt, and a special mix of spices, chaat has never been better!

I love experimenting with different cuisines and Indian street food is one of the easiest ways to do that. By pairing the bright, savory notes of the Mexican salad with the sweeter, spicy Indian touch, the end result is a quick appetizer that’s just too good to resist!

I was also super excited to use my new Tuo Cutlery‘s Fiery Phoenix Chef Knife for all the chopping! The knife features a stainless steel blade with a pakkawood handle for a heavy, durable feel. The knife is super sharp, sliding through these veggies like butter, and the weight makes it easy to rock back and forth. If you’re searching for a new daily knife, this one is hard to beat for its low price point!
