Pani Poori, also known as Golgappa, is a popular street food originating from Indian cuisine. This delightful snack comprises hollow, crispy shells made from semolina or wheat flour, called pooris, which are filled with tangy and spicy flavored water (pani), chickpeas, potatoes, and sometimes tamarind chutney. Its explosive mix of flavors and textures has made it a favorite across South Asia and beyond. Pani Poori can be a low-calorie treat and provides a burst of hydration from the flavored water and nutrition from the chickpeas and potatoes, which are rich in protein, fiber, and vitamins. However, its deep-fried shells and high sodium content from the spiced water can pose a challenge for weight management and blood pressure. Homemade versions with baked shells and reduced salt can offer a healthier twist to this quintessential snack while preserving its signature taste.
