Aloo Bhujiya Sev -Crispy and spicy gram flour and potato crisps

Aloo bhujiya Sev are a crisp and crunchy deep fried savoury snack which looks like thin vermicelli. It is a specialty from the state of Rajasthan and now popular all over the world. Sev are usually made with gram flour and spices, but now there are so many varieties of sev available in the market in so many different and delicious flavours, but Aloo Sev is the most popular variety among people.

Making Aloo bhujiya Sev is easy and quick. Gramflour and a few spices are added to mashed potatoes to make a dough and then drawn into thin sevs and deep fried in hot oil. Sev are made with a special instrument branded as sev maker or kitchen press.

Though Sev is mainly a snack and but also used as a garnish in most Indian chaats or street food and is a very important ingredient in the popular bhel poori.

Today is the festival of Holi  and on this colourful festival we welcome our guests with sweets and savory snacks, and though there is a huge variety of sweets and snacks very easily available in the market but as a tradition we make some at home ourselves on festivals. Aloo bhujiya Sev are one of the easiest snacks to make and have a fairly long shelf life.

On the occasion of Holi, every one has their own  favorite recipes to make but the varieties which are most popularly made on Holi are –

  • Dahiwada
  • Thandai
  • Aloo kachori 
  • Aloo Papad and sev
  • Gulab jamun
  • Hara Bhra Kabab

Wishing you all a very Happy and Colourful Holi !!!
