Dahi Bhalla (or plural bhallay) or Dahi Bara\u00a0 is a popular Pakistani street food. Although eaten year round, it is most popular during spring and summer season and of course during the month of Ramadan. It is also known as dahi vada, dahi vara, dahi bhala chaat, meethay baray and so on.<\/h4>\n

There are many variations to this recipe but in it’s true form it consists of lentil dumplings topped with spiced or sweet yogurt and chutneys<\/a> and garnished with cilantro and papri. Some people like to add thinly sliced onions or boiled\/cubed potatoes or garbanzo beans to it too.<\/h4>\n

Growing up we used to have it at least once a week with the evening chai and it was a must-have when entertaining guests.<\/h4>\n

Dahi Bhalla can be enjoyed as snack, as an appetizer or as a main dish.<\/h4>\n

Usually a big bowl is made and the condiments are laid around and everyone customizes it according to their liking. Some like extra chutney, others add extra chaat masala for the kick while others prefer more onions.<\/h4>\n

Now you can comfortably make this yummy street food in the comfort of your home.<\/h4>\n
