kutch street food Dabeli which actually means pressed in Gujarati, is a simple but tasty dish which originates from Mandvi in the Kutch area of Gujarat. It goes by the name of Kutchi dabeli, desi burger, kutchi burger and has become  very popular as street food in many parts of India. Its simply spicy mashed potato served in between a roll or pav along with some spicy, sweet and tangy chutneys. The first time I ever tasted dabeli was when our family went to Dwarka a few years ago. My son and husband refused to try it but my daughter and I did. We loved the katta meetha taste all wrapped up in a bun. Since then I have made dabeli for my daughter as she simply loves it. However, since I've come back to Mombasa, haven't made it at all. Yesterday I had invited my best friend's family over for dinner and the request was dabeli. I made dabeli after such a long time and wondered how could I have let the recipe disappear between the folds of the pages of my recipe book. Thank you P...
