The festival of Diwali has arrived and we are celebrating it with a lot of fun and enthusiasm. If you look around you, you will find houses decorated with lights, rangolis and much more. What is added to the celebration is the food. We indulge in a variety of sweet and savory dishes including Chole Bhature, Samosa, Gulab Jamun and more. In fact, we go on a bingeing spree, putting all our guilt-ridden feelings aside. While we buy some of our favorite sweets and snacks from our favorite shops in the city, there are other dishes that we love to make at home. During this time of the year, you will find people making barfi, laddu, namkeen etc. in abundance. Keeping this in mind, we bring you a popular snack recipe that will make Diwali a delicious affair. It is known as Verki Puri.
Verki Poori is basically a fried, flaky snack which looks and tastes like Maharashtrian Chirote. The only difference is that Chirota has a sweet taste, while Verki Poori has a salty taste. This recipe has been shared by food vlogger Ananya Banerjee on her YouTube channel (named Ananya Banerjee). So, without delaying much, let’s get to the recipe.
