Pani Puri / Golgappa / Puchkas, This is one of the most requested recipe by my viewers. I cannot remember how many times it has been requested. But i will get atleast 2 or 3 mails or comments from my viewers for this recipe. So finally i am here with the post. The reason i have been holding this recipe, because this needs few steps that has to be done in advance. Like i made the puri the day before. Then the next day i made the tamarind dates chutney and pani, and assembled the whole thing.

Notes
2)Dont add too much flour, it will make the poori soggy.
3)Knead the dough really well.
4)Frying the poori in medium hot oil for a longer time makes it crispy. If you fry on hot oil, it will turn golden soon but as it cools it will get soggy.
5)You can store this in a air tight container for upto 1 week.
6)When you are making the puri, always keep the dough covered or it will dry up.

Have a query, while making puri for pani puri.
My puri's puff and become crispy.
BUT lot of oil enters the puri/ while frying lot of oil goes inside the puri, is there a way to avoid.
