Notes
- Ensure that the pani is well-chilled for a refreshing taste.
- You can adjust the spice levels of the pani by adding more or less green chili.
- Customize the filling with your favourite ingredients such as tamarind chutney, sev, or boondi for added flavour and texture.
- Pani puris are best enjoyed fresh, as they tend to get soggy if left for too long after filling.
