Pani puri

This is another street dish that has several regional variants -- each claiming to be the first and best.

There's pani puri in Mumbai, phuchka in Kolkata and golgappa in Delhi. The pani puri is a hollow fried ball made of refined flour. Punch a tiny hole in it and fill it with the stuffing of your choice then dip it in spiced water (first savory and then sweet).

Mumbai goes with boiled potatoes mixed with benign masala powders for its filling. Pop it whole into your mouth and wait for the flavors to hit.

Where to try it: Elco Market, 46 Hill Road, Bandra West
