What is the journey of Pani Puri from ancient times to modern plate?

Pani Puri, also known as Golgappa, Puchka or Fulki in different parts of India, is a popular street snack with a long and varied history. Although it is difficult to determine the exact origin of Pani Puri, it is believed to have originated in the Indian subcontinent, especially in the northern regions of India.

According to the folklore of the epic Mahabharata, Draupadi was tasked with supporting her five husbands with limited resources. She only had a small amount of flour and potatoes, some other vegetables and water. Making the most of all the available ingredients, she serves puris stuffed with mashed potatoes and vegetables with flavored water. This wonderful recipe proves her housekeeping skills and abilities.

On the other hand, the origin of Pani Puri can be traced back to the ancient city of Magadh, in present-day Bihar, India, where it was called ‘phulki’. It is mainly a snack for rich and noble families. Over time, it became popular and spread to other parts of the country, each adding a unique character to the dish.

Some say that in the 12th century, during the reign of Mahmud of Ghazni, this dish was introduced to the Indian subcontinent through Afghanistan and Persia. It is called “phuchhka” in Bengal and “gup chup” in Odisha. In these regions, puris are smaller and crispier than those found in other parts of India.

Later, in the 19th century, Pani Puri became popular on the streets of North India, especially in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. It quickly became a favorite street snack thanks to its delicious taste, affordable price and convenience. Vendors will set up stalls or small carts filled with a variety of ingredients, luring customers with the sound of crunchy puris being crushed and filled with delicious fillings.

And before long, Pani Puri became an integral part of Indian street food culture, enjoyed by millions worldwide. The icon of Indian cuisine continues to evolve and adapt to different tastes and preferences.
