How to Prepare Gupchup Receipe

 Gupchup, also known as golgappa or pani puri, is a popular street food in India, especially in the northern and eastern parts of the country. It consists of a small, crispy, hollow fried dough ball filled with spicy mashed potatoes and served with tangy tamarind water. Here's a simple recipe to prepare gupchup at home:

Ingredients:

1 cup semolina (sooji)

1/4 cup all-purpose flour (maida)

1/4 tsp baking soda

Salt to taste

Oil for deep frying

2-3 boiled potatoes, mashed

1/2 tsp cumin powder

1/2 tsp chaat masala

1/2 tsp red chili powder

Tamarind water (Imli ka pani)

Coriander leaves and chopped onion for garnishing

Instructions:

In a bowl, mix together semolina, all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Add enough water to make a stiff dough. Knead for a few minutes until smooth.

Cover and let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.

Roll out the dough into small balls, about 1-inch in diameter.

Flatten each ball slightly and fry them in hot oil until they puff up and turn golden brown. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

In a bowl, mix mashed potatoes, cumin powder, chaat masala, and red chili powder.

Using a small knife, make a hole in each fried dough ball and fill with the potato mixture.

Arrange the filled balls on a plate and pour tamarind water over them.

Garnish with chopped onion and coriander leaves.

Your delicious gupchup is now ready to serve. Enjoy it as a snack or as a party appetizer!
