• 30 ready-made puri shells (everyone buys them, seriously)
• 1 bunch coriander + ½ bunch mint
• 2 green chillies + a thumb of ginger
• 1 tsp roasted cumin + ½ tsp black salt + juice of 1 lime
• 3 cups cold water
• 2 boiled potatoes + ½ cup chickpeas
• tamarind chutney

👩‍🍳 Method

1. Blend the coriander, mint, chillies, ginger and lime with 1 cup water until smooth.
2. Add the spices, black salt and the rest of the water. Chill it. Taste — it should be a spicy-sour slap, in the best way.
3. Mash the potatoes with the chickpeas. That's the filling, done.
4. Line everything up: shells, filling, chutney, and the pani with a small ladle.
5. Crack a hole in a shell's top with your thumb, spoon in filling, a drop of chutney, then flood it with pani.
6. In your mouth whole, immediately — you have 10 seconds before it leaks. It's a race and everyone wins.
