The quick n easy Fix!!
What is the one thing that has your eyes watering, senses reeling and leaves you completely speechless….Yesssss its Golgappe…the perfect indulgence for the fun festival of HOLI! 🙂
A big fav with both me & my daughter we are always engaged in a constant battle to out do each other!
Each visit to India, has one single-minded purpose that remains unchanged, to sample as many Golgappe from as many places as we can!! 🙂
Over the years I’ve discovered that the love for Golgappe extends far & wide….but good Golgappes are not that easily available, especially abroad!
So I’ve come up with a quick easy no-brainier recipe for all my overseas friends which is sure to please the most discerning taste buds!
For the paani…
1 SWAD Panipuri liquid mix
1 SWAD tamarind concentrate
1/3 cup sugar ( or according to your taste)
Pudina-mango extract
Mix all above ingredients. Add water as per your liking as to how strong or mild you like the paani to be! Chill in refrigerator.
For the pudina-mango extract…
Process I big bunch of mint along with 1 big raw mango/ I pack frozen raw mango, 1 inch piece of ginger and 2 green chillies along with some water. Strain using wire mesh and use!
PS: no need to add any additional spices, the ready to use Panipuri mix has all spices needed!
For the filling…
Roughly mash boiled Chana & alu in the proportion of 1:1. Add kalanamak, bhuna jeera pwdr and red chilli pwdr.
For the pooris…
You can buy store bought, microwave or fry ready to fry ones, never tried making it from scratch! 🙂
One tip, to crisp up store bought pooris…microwave them for a minute, then cool completely…they crisp up nicely!
