07 Indian street food you can never resist to eat

- Dewanshu Pande

When it comes to food, there is no other heaven than India. We Indians are considered to be the experimentalists when trying new cuisines. Be it Chinese, Mexican or Thai, if we do not add our own flavor to it, our appetite is never satisfied. 

Our love for food is not just confined to high-end restaurants, but takes us to places we have never been before. We are not afraid of trying, and our country's streets are filled with vendors cashing into our this weakness. From the mouth-watering taste of Raj Kachori, Bhel Papdi or Dhahi Bhalle to relishing delights of Paani puri, Papdi Chaat and Sev puri, every nook and corner has its own creative spin on it.

We bring to you seven such INDIAN STREET-FOOD that one can never resist to eat. 

Golgappa/ PaniPuri/ Puchka
Pani-Poori is a popular street snack in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal. It consists of a round, hollow puri, fried crisp and filled with a mixture of flavored water ("pani"), tamarind chutney, chilli, chaat masala, potato, onion and chickpeas. It is generally small enough to fit completely into one's mouth. You can try this snack at every round-about in India. 

Vada Pav
Vada-Pav is a vegetarian fast food dish native to the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is made up of a deep fried potato patty with some coriander and spices and was originated as a cheap street food in Mumbai. However it is now offered in stalls and restaurants throughout India.

Bhelpuri is a savory Indian snack, and is also a type of chaat. It is made out of puffed rice, vegetables and a tangy tamarind sauce enough to stir your taste-buds. Easy to prepare and serve, it is one of the most favored Indian snack in the central and western parts of India. 

Poha-Jalebi

Samosa - Kachori 

A samosa is a fried or baked pastry with a savoury filling, such as spiced potatoes, onions, peas, lentils, and/or minced meat (lamb, beef or chicken). Its size and consistency may vary, but typically it is distinctly triangular or tetrahedral in shape. Indian samosas are usually vegetarian, and often accompanied by a mint sauce (raita) or chutney.
