Dabeli, also known as kutchi dabeli, is an iconic street food that hails from the Kutch region of Gujarat. The word dabeli literally means "pressed," referring to the way the pav (bun) is stuffed with a spicy, tangy potato mixture, chutneys, crunchy sev, and pomegranate seeds before being pressed together. It was invented in the 1960’s by a snack vendor in Mandvi, Gujarat, and this dish quickly gained popularity for its unique balance of flavours—sweet, spicy, tangy, and crunchy all in one bite. Today, it is a staple street food not just in Gujarat but across Maharashtra and many parts of India.
