Pani Puri
Pani-Puri is one of the most relished Indian street snack. Foodies just look for opportunities to go out and have the spicy watered dish. I can recall how I used to find excuses to go to canteen and enjoy them with friends in college; and not to forget the outings with my sister only to have my daily dose of Golgappas.
It’s not that easy to find the same Indian taste here in the United States, no worries, one can easily make them at home and still get the same traditional taste. Pani-Puri is also known by many different name depending on where you are in India. Some of the known synonyms are Puchka, Pani-Patasha, Gup-Chup and many more.
Making it at home is as easy as pie; I am jotting down my recipe and some of the pictures of real dish prepared by me in my own kitchen.
