If mentioning brand names is not inappropriate, Pachranga Mixed Pickles in the 28oz can has oil & juice to spare. Priya red chili pickle is spare of oil but great flavor for the muri, since adding oil pickle is acceptable, i.e. you can add dalmoth like the various "Punjabi Hot Mixes" plus some chopped pickle & juices, AND green THAI type chillies (aromatic) and as many or as few other things as Sandeepa indicates.<br /><br />If you are feeling calorie challenged, please boil up some Russet potatoes, mash, and flavor simply with powdered roasted cumin seed & black salt. Shape into UFO-like patties, dip into BESAN batter & deep fry. This is Alu-r Chop,a "must" accompaniment, along with "Beguni", thin slices of eggplant dipped in Besan & fried.<br /><br />In times past, the besan & sattu in India used to be ground fresh each day by the vendors. This allowed for inimitable flavor & crispness missing in the packaged material.gautamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188124842361333060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-46528649769569239212011-09-16T12:26:39.864-04:002011-09-16T12:26:39.864-04:00Anjali

If you mix that with your muri you might get the real taste. And if she is vouching for it I am sure.<br /><br />I really, really want you to taste the real JhaalMuri.

A friend got some cones of that name from her last visit, looked pretty but nowhere near the real JhaalMuri.Bong Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15407918137263251235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-48697721286220760462011-09-13T12:47:46.166-04:002011-09-13T12:47:46.166-04:00My neighborhood mall stocks muri in lovely cones p...My neighborhood mall stocks muri in lovely cones priced at Rs.10.
