Street Food Series: Pizza Pani Puri/ Pizza Puchka

I was inspired to recreate this pizza puchkas after seeing numerous pictures and videos on Instagram and youtube. Street food vendors seem to add a white sauce in the filling when I tried to do that the entire puri tends to fall apart and is not that tasty. We liked it without the white cheese sauce.

Add the boiled potato, corn and capsicum fry all the three ingredients for a minute. Add salt and pepper. Add 1/4 Tsp Red chilly flakes and italian seasoning fry all the ingredients till well combined. Remove from flame allow to cool.

Lets Assemble: Use a microwave safe plate if your preparing this in a microwave or use a oven safe dish if your using a convection oven, we also need to pre heat the oven if you want to use a oven.

I am using a convection mode on my microwave to prepare this pizza puchkas. I have already preheated the microwave for 10 minutes on 180 degrees.

Using a micro safe plate I have created even cavity in the puris and arranged the puris. Fill all the puris with 1/2 tbsp of potato filling. topped the filling with pizza sauce and grated cheese. Finally sprinkled chilly flakes and italian seasoning.

I microwaved all the puris at 2 minute mark for 5 minutes until the cheese melted and served it right away. We enjoyed the puris along with hot chai this is such a satisfying snack 😃
