Pani puri is an Indian street food.
It’s also referred to as "GolGappa". The name means “Water Balls”.
They’re cooling and a great way to beat the heat.
You can buy pani puri shells at Indian grocery stores, or deep-fry your own.
Pani Puri
For the Water :
- 2 golf-ball sized chunks of tamarind pulp
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 tbsp toasted cumin seed powder
- 1 tbsp coriander seed powder
- 1/4 tsp black salt
- 1/2 tsp aamchur powder
- 1/2-inch piece of ginger, peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup loosely packed mint leaves
- 1 green chili
- juice of 1/2 a lime
- sugar, to taste (I use gur, or Indian raw sugar)
- salt, to taste
Pour boiling water over tamarind pulp. Stir. Let stand 30 minutes. Squeeze tamarind pulp to release all of the flavour into the water. Strain and reserve liquid.
Put the tamarind water and all of the other ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth.
Adjust seasoning. The mixture should taste sweet and sour.
Chill the mixture.

Gently break holes in the tops of the puris.
