Guava Pani Puri

Last weekend I spent a relaxing time with my girlfriends at Alviso Marine Park. It was a beautiful day with perfect climate and great picnic tables for an amazing potluck meet with friends. A month ahead we had been planning for a Chaat Party. Yes, Indian girls love chaat...spicy, sweet, tangy party with lots of jokes and gossips.

Few months back I had tasted Guava Pani at my friends place. I do make grape pani and berry pani, but guava pani was just the best. So this time I planned to make Guava Pani Puri for this chaat party.

Here is the recipe:
1+1/2 liters guava juice.
8-10 leaves of fresh mint
1 tbsp. cumin seeds
1 tbsp. rock salt
1-2 green chillies (to your spice level)
1 inch ginger

  • Grind mint, chillies, ginger. and cumin with 1/2 cup guava juice to form a smooth paste.
  • Add the paste to rest of the guava juice. 
  • Add rock salt (to taste) and mix well.
  • Let the mixture stand in the refrigerator for few hours before serving.
  • Strain the Pani. 
  • Add ice if needed before serving.
 Here is the pictorial recipe:
