Sooji ke Gol Gappe, also known as Pani Puri, is one of the most loved street foods in India. These tiny, crispy puris filled with spicy, tangy water and a flavorful stuffing are a delight to the taste buds. Making them at home is not only healthier but also allows you to customize the flavors just the way you like. Let’s dive into this easy and tasty recipe!

Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Puris (Gol Gappe):

  • 1 cup Sooji (semolina)
  • 2 tbsp Maida (all-purpose flour)
  • A pinch of Baking Soda
  • Salt to taste
  • Water for kneading
  • Oil for deep frying

For the Spicy Water (Pani):

  • 1/2 cup Mint Leaves
  • 1/2 cup Coriander Leaves, chopped
  • 1-2 Green Chilies, chopped (adjust as per taste)
  • 1/2 inch Ginger piece
  • 1 Lemon (juiced)
  • 1 tsp Black Salt (Kala Namak)
  • 1 tsp Chaat Masala
  • 3 tbsp Sugar
  • 4 cups Cold Water
  • Optional: Boondi (fried gram flour balls)

For the Masala (Stuffing):

  • 2 medium Potatoes, boiled and mashed
  • 1/2 cup Boiled Kala Chana (black chickpeas)
  • 1/2 tsp Red Chili Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin-Coriander Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Chaat Masala
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh Coriander for garnish

Step-by-Step Recipe

Making the Puris:
  1. In a bowl, mix sooji, maida, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add water and knead into a firm dough. Cover and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
  2. Roll out the dough thinly and cut into small circles using a round cutter or the lid of a bottle.
  3. Heat oil in a deep pan. Fry the puris on medium heat until golden and crispy. Set them aside to cool completely.
Preparing the Spicy Water (Pani):
  1. Wash the mint and coriander leaves thoroughly.
  2. Grind the mint, coriander, green chilies, ginger, and lemon juice into a smooth paste, adding a little water if needed.
  3. Mix the paste with cold water in a large bowl. Add black salt, chaat masala, and sugar. Stir well and adjust the taste.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour for the flavors to blend. Add boondi just before serving if desired.
Making the Masala:
  1. In a bowl, combine mashed potatoes, boiled kala chana, red chili powder, cumin-coriander powder, chaat masala, and salt.
  2. Mix well and garnish with fresh coriander.
Assembling the Gol Gappe:
  1. Gently make a small hole in each puri.
  2. Fill the puris with a spoonful of the prepared masala.
  3. Dip the filled puris into the spicy pani or serve it alongside in a bowl for dipping.
  4. Enjoy immediately for the perfect crunch!

Tips for the Best Gol Gappe:

  • Crispy Puris: Ensure the dough is rolled thin, and fry on medium heat to get perfectly crispy puris.
  • Customizable Pani: Adjust the spice, tanginess, and sweetness of the pani by tweaking the chili, lemon juice, and sugar.
  • Stuffing Options: You can use ragda (cooked dried peas curry) instead of potato and kala chana for a variation.

Serving Ideas:

Sooji ke Gol Gappe are best enjoyed fresh and crispy as a snack or starter. Serve them at parties, family gatherings, or even for a fun treat at home.

This homemade version not only satisfies your cravings but is also a fun activity to involve the entire family. So, grab your ingredients and give this recipe a try!
