Pani puri is one of the most popular street foods in India. Cripy puris with chane, aloo, and sweet and tangy water make our mouths burst with flavour. Doesn’t it? However, recently, the humble pani puri took a whirlwind trip around the globe, all thanks to the creativity of Aditi Nevgi, a participant in MasterChef Australia Season 15. Aditi decided to give pani puri a Mexican makeover. She went all out and stuffed avocado and salmon roe inside those crispy little puris. A fusion of flavours that’s enough to make any foodie’s heart skip a beat! Aditi’s Mexican twist on pani puri had the judges of MasterChef Australia jumping with joy, but back in India, the reactions on Twitter were like a rollercoaster ride.

On the other end of the spectrum, we find an individual singing praises for the audacious twist. He exclaimed, “Probably the best thing that has ever happened to pani puri.”

So, what does Aditi Nevgi have to say about the discourse around her dish? Well, she will happily continue to experiment, she declares in an Instagram post.
