Whew!!! Last minute entry for today’s prompt.
There really is nothing as spicy as street food. Whether it’s the vada pao, misal or bhajiyas from my current hometown – Pune or it’s Lucknow’s chaat, sprout bhel, khasta, chana jor garam or baati chokha – it just has to be hot hot hot.
Take a look…
 |
| Chillies occupy pride of place amidst the chana and the masala is to die for. |
 |
| Spicy Tea.. anyone? |
 |
| Some Magi to go along with that tea.. or will it be a bread pakora or boiled eggs or aaloo vadas? |
 |
| Pack some baati chokha off the streets. Baatis (Litti in Bihar) are crisp dough balls with a filling of spicy ‘sattu’ that go perfectly with the chokha which is a baigan-aaloo bharta with a liberal sprinkling of green chillies that bring on the hicupps and make your nose run. |
 |
| … and finally the khasta teams up perfectly with potato sabzi which also has a liberal sprinkling of green chillies. Oh and the jalebis are here for two reasons.. One, I figured you might want some |
Spicy treats… tantalizing my taste buds now!
