This Is Not Your Regular Pani Puri But One With A Twist

What comes to your mind when you think of one of the most popular street foods in India? Yes, it is pani puri or golgappe or puchka, whatever you call it. Consisting of a mostly round hollow puri fried in oil and filled with masaledar potato, pyaaz and the spicy tangy water, this snack has been ruling our hearts since ages. Golgappe can give an explosion of flavours in every single bite. Its aftereffect, though short-lived, is like heaven. I don't think there is anyone on this planet who doesn't like golgappe. Isn't it?

You may have tried golgappe with different types of tangy water but the one we are going to tell you about is different. Recently, Chef Pankaj Bhadouria shared a post on her Instagram and shared the recipe of pani puri with a twist. Can you guess what it could be? It is Guava Pani Puri.
