Summer cravings for street food are real, but so are concerns about hygiene. Skip the worry and bring the flavors home with these five refreshing, easy-to-make street food classics—each with a healthy twist. Enjoy the taste of the streets without the risk!

1. Baked Samosa:

Swap deep-frying for baking and fill your samosas with a medley of veggies like carrots, beans, and potatoes. Baking slashes the oil while keeping the crunch, making them a guilt-free tea-time snack.

2. Whole Wheat Pav Bhaji:

Upgrade the classic pav bhaji by using whole wheat buns and loading the bhaji with green peas, carrots, and cauliflower. This fiber-rich version is just as delicious and far more nutritious.

3. Healthy Dahi Puri:

Turn this chaat favorite into a summer superstar by filling baked puris with moong dal and topping with low-fat yogurt, tangy chutneys, and fresh coriander. It’s light, cooling, and packed with protein.

4. Atta Momos:

Make Delhi’s beloved momos at home with whole wheat flour and a stuffing of shredded carrots and cabbage. Steam instead of fry for a soft, wholesome bite—perfect with homemade spicy chutney.

5. Grilled Bhutta (Corn on the Cob):

Roast corn on an open flame, then rub with lemon, salt, and a pinch of chili powder for a smoky, tangy snack that’s high in fiber and summer nostalgia.
