Zal Puri pairs chicken tikka, chopped into pieces and cooked in the tandoor, with a generous, spiced salsa of chickpeas, egg, cucumber, tomato and tamarind, served over a puri, the small fried, puffed bread typical of Indian street food. A dish full of textures and flavours, from crispy to melting to tangy, spicy enough to wake up the taste buds.
A dish with a story
Preparations of fried puri filled with legumes and spiced sauces have been a pillar of Indian street food for generations, notably as the famous pani puri.
Every region and every street vendor has their own version, with sauces and fillings that vary by local taste.
Reinterpreted here with chicken tikka for a heartier, more generous version, adapted for a restaurant menu.
Indian street food comes in countless regional variations: our Zal Puri is a house creation inspired by this tradition, not an exact copy of one specific recipe.
