Delish Stuffing With mouth-watering Paani for Puris


Nutritional facts of branded masala
According to legend of Mahabharata, Draupadi invented puchkas, at some places named as 'Paanipuri', 'Golgappa', 'Gupchup'even remembering the name our mouth starts to water. Once I read about the content of origin of pani puri. So goes like this, Kunti, mother in law of Draupadi, gave her wheat flour and some potatoes and told her to make something new out of it. Then Draupadi made small small puris of flour and boil and mashed the potatoes as filling and made some spicy water for the gravy and this led to invention of pani puri.

Panipuri or Phuchka is a type of snack that originated in the Indian subcontinent.
It consists of a round or ball-shaped, hollow puri (a deep-fried crisp crepe), filled with a mixture of flavored water (known as imli pani), tamarind chutney, chili, chaat masala, potato, onion or chickpeas. There are many variants of stuffing now-a-days, but I am sharing my home-made recipe.
