Mauritian Chana Puri Recipe

This is a little lentil-filled dough ball that has been deep-fried. The merchant will split it apart and pour chutney over it if you choose to (and I highly advise you do). At the Mahebourg market, I got the most delicious Chana Puri drenched in The Best Ever Coconut Chutney. Go crazy and sample one of each at the street booths that also serve other deep-fried treats in addition to chana puri! There is no reason to hesitate because they often cost less than Rs 5 (EUR 10c) each.
