Pani puri is a popular Indian snack that consists of a hollow, deep-fried dough ball filled with spicy water. It is described as being 70% water with a thick outer crust, and metaphorically as the "Mother Earth" that provides sustenance to some. Pani puri has rounded edges and customizable fillings to suit different tastes, can be served very quickly, and supports additional flavors. It is considered a humble food that is also always healthy for the digestive system.
