About Dabeli

Dabeli is a Gujarati street snack from Kutch. A soft bun is filled with a sweet and spicy potato mash, then topped with roasted peanuts, pomegranate seeds and sev, and toasted in butter.

Regional versions

The potato is flavored with a special dabeli masala and tamarind and date chutney. Some stalls add grapes or garlic chutney, and Mumbai versions are often a little spicier than the originals in Mandvi.

It is a snack, so pair it with other chaat such as sev puri or pani puri, or have it with a masala chai.

How this list is made

We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.
