Steps

25 minutes

1

Rinse the dal and soak it for 6-7 hours. Drain the water, then blend the dal with ginger and green chilies in a mixer, using as little water as possible.
2

Add sugar, oil, and salt to the dal paste and whisk until the mixture is soft and fluffy. Heat oil in a deep pan.
3

Wet your hands, shape the dal mixture into flat patties, and carefully drop them into the hot oil. Fry on medium heat until golden on both sides, then remove.
4

In a bowl, mix water with asafoetida. Soak the fried bhallas in this water for 30 minutes.
5

Whisk the yogurt with sugar until smooth using a hand whisk.
6

Gently press the bhallas between your palms to remove excess water and place them on a plate. Top with sweetened yogurt, black salt, chili powder, and cumin powder.
7

Drizzle cilantro-mint chutney and tamarind sweet chutney on top.
8

Sprinkle with fine sev and enjoy your Dahi Bhalla Chaat.
