    You take a spoonful and then you close your eyes, tilt your head a little - each time you do this I feel like eating my computer screen because your signature gesture is a confirmation that the food you've tasted is heavenly.
    I can't watch your video on empty stomach.

    Hey Blitz, awesome to hear you've been obsessed with pani puri, it's such a great snack. I haven't had it for years in Bangkok, as I've been traveling a lot lately, but if you search for Tikki south indian restaurant Bangkok, I wrote an article about an Indian place in Silom, they should have it if they're still around. You might call them to confirm they are still around - it's been a while since I've been there.

    Hey Richa, at first I thought it was coconut milk, but the vendor told me it's actually just a thickened water (with flour) and Indian spices mixed in. But it's quite creamy.

  • @BatulMukarram
    @BatulMukarram 10 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Ahh! I know this place :D
    There is a better place for mix, downtown, near the Ismaili mosque, and ask them to serve it with sururu, it tastes amazing!
    and the sweet chutney you tasted in paani puri was tamarind sauce, and the water is made out of coriander, mint, and chili..
    oh and the soup of the mix is mainly coconut milk with a few other ingredients..

    Hey so the Pani Puri is just fried little crispy dough circles, the sweet chutney you tasted was Indian sweet tamarind chutney, also with green chutney, with is ginger, green hot peppers and cilantro. The "pani" (water) itself is mint, lemon and chilli (I could drink the stuff, it's heavenly). Hope this helped!
