this looks great....alas...I don't think we have ready made pani puris but I will look for them. Is Jal Jira a brand? Is that a combo of spices? Don't know this...can you help me out? Thanks...you are a gem as always...being very patient with me!
ReplyDeleteJal Jira is the liquid into which the pani puri is dipped. And it is indeed a combo of spices - there are different brands that make it - I guess it can be made at home too, but this is simpler - the carton states the ingredients in descending order of weight - salt, black salt, dry mango, citric acid, cumin, mint, black pepper, ginger, red chilli and asafoetida. ( phew!). The pani puris can also be made at home, but they may not come out as crisp.
