Food Diary: Classic Street Food
India is not a street food paradise like China, but it still has a lot. Samosas are the most famous street snack, a flaky deep fried pastry filled with potatoes and other vegetables. Most carts will have a dish called panipuri, I never tried it, but it looked like crispy ball, tiny puris and served with sauce or curry. Men will walk with big trays on their head, featuring an assortment of nuts, legumes and puffed rice or popcorn. These are mixed together with masala, onions, and a squirt of lime. Another quick, yet unfilling treat. Honestly, I hit up mostly restaurants in India, but the street food is a great way to have some quick, cheap sustenance.
