First time having this dish.
Panipuri is a deep-fried breaded hollow spherical shell, about 1 inch in diameter, filled with a combination of potato, onion and chickpea. It is a common street food in the Indian subcontinent. It is often spiced with tamarind chutney, chili powder, or chaat masala.
They look like pretty little nests. They had a delicious filling of #chickpea paste, a scattering of ruby pomegranate seeds and a topping of crisp sprinkles of onion and fresh coriander leaf.
The outer casing had a great crunch to contrast with the soft mashed contents.
The tamarind sauce tasted a bit odd so I avoided it on my second gol goppa.
They make great appetisers.
I love Jai Krishna. It has kept to its own quirky way of doing things. The customer writes out their order, hands it in and a copy is handwritten by a staff member in duplicate, one chit goes to the kitchen, one is kept to calculate the bill. No computer required.
They have a bring your own drink policy.
Great local vegetarian and vegan food.
