Puchka aka Pani Puri

Name

March will be Indian Street Food special on Sailus Kitchen where I will be featuring Chaat and snack
recipes. I will try to cover as many recipes as I can prepare during this month. Chaats are Indias National
Snacks like hot dogs or burgers are to America or Tacos are to Mexico. The innumerable Chaats and
snacks showcase a myriad of flavors and textures sweet, salty, tangy, spicy, soft and crispy, that
epitomize Indian food.

Today, Im blogging a tongue tickling crowd pleaser, popular all over the country. It is known by different
names based on the region Gol Gappa (East India), Pani Puri (West & South India) or Puchka (North
India). This street food sensation is popular among all age groups as it adds a flavorful punch to the palate.
Each region or home have their own version of Pani Puri, in terms of fillings.

Puri

Basically pani puris are small balls made of flour and semolina, rolled out into very small puris and deep
fried to a golden shade, cooled and stored in air tight containers. The hollow puri is slightly crushed on the
top and filled with a little each of mashed potatoes, chopped onions and sweet chutney, then dipped in a
chilled mint flavored tangy water, and eaten as a whole, in one mouthful. As you savor the pani puri, you
can literally feel the explosion of flavors in your mouth, an assortment of crisp, tangy, spicy tastes.

Ingredients:

1/2 tbsp maida/all-purpose flour

2 tbsps urad dal flour
1 1/2 cups ravva/semolina/sooji (very fine variety)
salt to taste
water for kneading (bottled soda water prefered)
oil for deep frying

Matar Kachori

Masala Idli
Mamidikaya (Raw Mango) Semiya Upma

1 Combine all the mentioned ingredients (except oil for deep frying), adding water slowly and make a
dough. Leave aside covered with damp cloth for 15 mts. (very imp step)
2 While the dough is resting. (i) Prepare the pani (water) required for the puchka. (ii) Boil two potatoes,
peel and mash. Combine the mashed potato with little salt and red chilli pwd and keep aside until use. (iii)
Chop a large onion finely and keep aside until use.
3 Knead the dough again. Pinch off some dough and make very small balls. Roll out small thin rotis,
using the rim of a container to cut out the round shape. Keep them covered.
4 Heat enough oil for deep frying in a heavy bottomed vessel. It should be on medium high (the oil
should not be piping hot) and once its hot, slide few rotis into the hot oil and using the back of the ladle,
press in the center and along the edges and you will find it will puff. Flip over and fry the other side till light
golden brown. Dont fry too much as it will turns too dark. Remove on to absorbent paper.
5 Cool and store in an air tight container and use when required.
Note: Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying the puri. If the oil is not hot enough, the roti will absorb a
lot of oil. If made ahead of time, lightly warm in oven for 3-4 mts before serving. Ensure to roll out very think
puris. And use very fine sooji.
