Healthy Dabheli on homemade wheat pav




I know I am talking about fast food/street food and yet I am trying to call it healthy. I can say that because I have made it with homemade wheat pav and used just 1 tsp of oil and NO butter nor any fried sev .

You can check out my wheat pav recipe and make them before you start with dabheli. Dabheli is pretty famous in Maharashtra and is sold on food stalls almost everywhere.

Ingredients:

Whole wheat home made pav

2 boiled potatoes
1 medium onion finely chopped
1 large tomato finely chopped
1 tsp oil
Salt to taste
Juice of half lemon
½ tsp sugar
2 tsp dabheli masala (I used Laxmi brand)

To garnish
Finely chopped cilantro
½ cup of pomegranate seeds
6 finely chopped black grapes
Finely chopped onions
¼ cup Grated/dessicated fresh coconut
½ cup Roasted peanuts
Red chili and garlic chutney
Tamarind and date chutney

Start with a teaspoon of oil in a pot and put the chopped onions and then add tomatoes once the onions are cooked. Add the dabheli masala, sugar, salt and lemon juice and let everything cook till onions nad tomatoes are soft. Now, peel and mash the potatoes and add in the cooked onion tomato mixture and turn off the heat. Mix everything together. Pour this in a serving bowl.


Now, the first layer is the tomato, onion and potato mixture. Start layering the serving bowl with the second layer of grated coconut. Then, the third one will be the chopped cilantro and then, pomegranate and grapes. Lastly, add the peanuts just before serving.


Now heat the pav and apply the chutneys on both sides. Add the layered filling taking it carefully making sure you get all layers in the spoon  and garnish with chopped onions. Serve hot.
