Dry Bhel: "

What's the difference between dry bhel and usual bhelpuri? Well, dry bhel is the bhel without chutneys. There are two ways of getting it in Mumbai. If your bhelwala is too generous, he will give you dry bhel free of charge after eating the usual bhel/sev puri/ragda patties.

Or there are those shops that sell kurmuras and chanas. Those shops also sell this dry bhel without chutneys. It's a mixture with minced onions, chilies, cilantro, raw mango - when in season, sprinkled with chili powder and chaat masala with a generous squeeze of lemon. Yum!
