The Best Of Healthy Street Food Available in Bhubaneswar

Sprouts Salad

 Sprouts as we all know is rich in fibre and is full of proteins too. Many people opt for the option of sprouts as a breakfast or an evening snack and off late you can actually find many people crowding near the thela wallas (Stalls) selling sprout salad!


The sprout salad that is available in the Master Canteen stall has boiled sprouts with chopped onions, tomatoes, carrots, a handful of peanuts and salt and pepper to taste. The blue thela that is offering this recent favorite snack is, in fact, witnessing more number of customers than the gupchup stall next to it. “Sprouts salad is my every day evening snack and I come to this stall every day and get myself a plate of salad that costs just Rs 10 but is quite fulfilling and tasty,” says Damini Samal, a working professional.


Steamed or Roasted Corn

Corn like sprouts is also high on nutritional value and is enjoyed and loved by almost everyone. Especially during the monsoons, we all like to go and get ourselves a roasted corn and add a dash of extra lime and salt to it and relish it till the end.


While roasted corn is a preferred option for many, steamed corn is also equally popular. Steamed corn with a pinch of black salt is the perfect street food snacking that can give your body a protein boost.

Steamed and roasted corns are available in many places in the capital. Ramkishore Biswal, who has his stall near Ekamra Haat tells us, “Everyday I do a business about Rs. 200. People prefer the roasted corn much more than the steamed variety and school going kids and college goers are my regular customers.”



Soma Das, a homemaker says, “My mother in law who is almost 70 years old loves to gorge on steamed corn and I make it a point to get it packed for her almost every other day.” While the roasted corn comes for ten rupees, the steamed corn is available for twenty rupees.

Fruits Salad

Needless to say, fruits are packed with vitamins and minerals but many people consciously stay away from cut fruits because they are unsure how long has it been kept this way. But, some of the stalls like the one in Market Building ensure that they prepare your bowl of papaya, grapes, watermelon, apples, guava and oranges in front of you.

Stall owner Jagmohan Panda tells us, “I peel all the fruits and keep them ready but I cut and serve them only when a customer places an order. There are many  people who come to my stall even at 9 pm to eat a bowl of fresh fruits.”
