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