It consists of small, crispy, hollow puris (fried bread) that are filled with a flavourful mixture of mashed potatoes, chickpeas, onions, and spices. The highlight of pani puri is the “pani,” which refers to the tangy and spicy water that is poured into the puris just before eating.

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Water, as needed for kneading
  • Oil for deep frying

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the puris:

  • Gradually add water and knead to form a stiff dough.
  • Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 20 minutes.
  • After resting, knead the dough again for a few minutes.
  • Divide the dough into small balls and roll them into thin circles (about 2-3 inches in diameter).
  • Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat.
  • Carefully slide in a few puris at a time and fry them until they turn golden brown and puffed up.
  • Remove the puris from the oil and let them cool on a paper towel-lined plate.

  • Add more water if needed to adjust the consistency. The pani should be tangy and spicy.
  1. Prepare the filling:
  • In a bowl, mix boiled and mashed potatoes, boiled chickpeas, finely chopped onion, chopped coriander leaves, chaat masala, and salt. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

  • Arrange the filled puris on a serving plate.
