Millet Bhel is a healthy, often gluten-free snack that replaces traditional Puffed Rice one with millet grains like Jowar or Sorghum Millet, Bajra or Pearl Millet and Ragi or Finger Millet. It typically contains a mix of roasted Millets, Peanuts, and split roasted Gram daal, seasoned with spices. Millet Bhel is a good source of Fiber and Protein, offering a crunchy, flavourful and a nutritious alternative to traditional Bhel Puri. Often roasted or baked instead of fried with no trans fat, cholesterol or preservatives. A good source of Protein, Fiber and essential Vitamins and Minerals found in millets. Many versions are naturally gluten-free, making them suitable for those with gluten sensitivity.
The high Fiber and Protein content helps you feel full for longer. Not only is it easily made, it is absolutely delicious and healthy too. The Vegetables used can be added according to one's own choice. Shredded Beetroot also can be added along with Carrots. Spices and Chutneys can be adjusted accordingly. Nuts and Seeds also can be used in this super yummy variation of Bhel Puri.
Keep all the ingredients handy and mix up everything or assemble it just before serving for a perfect crunch and texture. If it's made too early, you might end up with soggy Bhel. That's the only thing that has to be taken care of. It's the perfect and the easiest among a horde of other varieties of snacks.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
