Light lunch for a hot summers day Pani Puri's

Pani Puris (Gol Guppa's)
One of India's most famous street snacks has become a popular lunch dish throughout south asian households in the west. The availability of ready made Puri's (hollow semolina puffs) has made this possible, these can be bought in specialist Indian grocery stores, along with the other main ingredient, spicy water Pani. The other two ingredients are boiled cubed potatoes and cooked black chick peas which is added into the puri and filled with the spicy water, the pani puri is then consumed whole.

Why not give them a go, simply delicious.........

I recenty tried Taste's Gol Guppa Pani, which i believe to be the perfect spicy water for this dish, truly brings it alive. Now in stock.

India's Most Famous Biscuit

Parle-G
Children love biscuits and I remember growing up on my favourites, Bourbons and Chocolate Digestives, oh to die for! Though as a little kid in the late 70’s & early 80’s we would go on holiday to India to stay with our Gran and in the mornings we would look for our favourite biscuits for breakfast. It was ok for the first week because mum had bought supplies, though then came the second week and we had run out. Gran to the rescue with the Parle-G, remember the packaging to this date, orangey and red with a little girl on it, same girl today! Good for you she said, gives you energy because it’s got glucose in it and that was that, I was hooked on to the super malted wheat biscuits.
 
For years down the line only had the Parle-G anytime we went to India, though now you can find them in your local Indian grocery shop.

Why not give them a go and find out why over a billion people love them..........

Only one crisp will do with my sarnie!

My Favourite Lays Cream & Onion 

Why does the packaging sort of remind you of Walkers Crisps in the UK?

Because it is!

Lays is the original name of this famous brand, and Walkers is the name we know of it in the UK, both owned by Pepsico. While Walkers is advertised by football legend Gary Linekar, in India, Lays is endorsed by none other than Indian Cricket Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

And like in other countries and other names of the same brand, other flavours come about due to personal taste's, in India we have Magic Masala.

Lays Now In Stock
