Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Base
In a large mixing bowl, add the puffed rice, sev, chopped tomatoes and onions, diced boiling potatoes, roasted peanuts, and finely chopped green chilies.
Step 2: Add Flavored Touches
Sprinkle the chaat masala, red chili powder, and salt over the mixture. These spices enhance the flavor and richness of the dish.
Step 3: Add the chutneys
Drizzle the tamarind and mint-coriander chutney over the mixture. Adjust the quantity to your taste, keeping the sweetness and tanginess in balance.
Step 4: Mix well.
Toss the ingredients together gently with a wooden spoon to ensure that the chutneys and spices are distributed evenly. The idea is to coat each element with exquisite flavors.
Step 5: Garnish with fresh herbs.
Sprinkle fresh coriander on top for a punch of herbaceous flavor. This not only improves the flavor, but also adds vibrancy to the presentation.

Divide the Bhelpuri mixture among individual serving plates. Optional: serve with puris on the side. Squeeze lemon juice over each serving to add zing.
