ever since I left Coimbatore, not a day has gone by without me getting nostalgic about our very own "kongu naatu" bhel puri as I like to call it...many thanks to you for posting parts of the recipe here...but you could have made my lot a lot easier if you would have posted in more detail about the quantity of ingredients to be used and the method itself as I am still only finding my feet in the kitchen and this if I ever dare to try would be the single most ambitious projet of my fledgling chef life...bad you dinna leave an email in your profile, but good that you are currently in Richmond which is only a stone's throw from where I am...(that is if stones can travel 90 miles which I doubt :-) )...not sure if you ll get around to read this comment of mine, but if you do please buzz me at 757.515.8758 or mail me at prankster.in.wave@gmail.com as I d luv to hear in detail about my dream recipe...Adios!
Hi Venki,
I am also a big fan of "kongu naatu bhel puri" :) With so much of difficulty I finally found the cbe style recipe. I am curious to know if you tried this and did it taste authentic?
