Pani Puri is a must have for many girls in Nepal and India. It is full of spices that will make your mouth water every time you think about eating it.
Yields: 15
Ingredients for the water/Pani:
-Water (around a liter)
-Pani Puri masala (In H-Mart in the Indian section or any other grocery store)
-Salt (to taste)
-Lemon (to taste)
-2-3 Green or Red chili chopped
-Black salt
Ingredients for the stuffing:
-1 medium finely chopped onions (More if you want)
-2 Boiled potatoes
-Red or Green chili chopped
-Coriander finely chopped
-Black/White salt to taste
Other ingredients:
-A packet of Puri (You can use this again and again since there’s at least 20 or more puris in the bag)
-Canola Oil
Recipe:
Get a medium sized bowl and put water in it.
Add Pani Puri masala, salt, black salt, lemon and the chopped chilies to the water.
Mix well and leave it as it is.
Heat the pan with oil in it. Make sure the oil is hot, then add the Puri into the oil.
Deep fry the Puri 5 at a time. Once it starts getting brown, crispy and puffy, take it out.
For the stuffing, first boil the potatoes and make sure it feels like mashed potatoes.
Add the chopped onions, chilies, coriander and black or white salt to your taste.
Mix it well with a glove on or with a spoon.
Eat after you make a hole in the Puri and enjoy!
