Doi Fuchka or Dahi Puri Chaat is one delicious and popular variety from Chaat Gharana. You can get several types of chaat in India from street vendors. They all are very very tasty. In Kolkata, one of the famous chaat is 'doi fuchka'. The hollow chips are filled with spicy potato filling, thick sweet and sour yogurt mixture, sweet tamarind chutney along with lots of fresh coriander leaves and few other ingredients. I have never made Chaat at home while staying in India because you can get them almost everywhere. But now that I am staying in USA, whenever I crave for Chaat, I had to make them at home. Trust me, after following this recipe you will achieve the exact same street style taste and flavors. Enjoy the video with detailed recipe.
