Low fat Pani Puri / Golgappa

 In this recipe substitute the regular puri(deep fried)  with this store brought ready made baked phyllo shells. They are available in the regular super market in the frozen section.

Pani (Spicy Water): make this a bit thick compared to the regular pani.

1/2 cup mint leaves (Pudina)
1/2 cup corriander leaves
2 to 4 green chilies (based on taste)
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon black salt
1 tablespoon roasted cumin seed powder
salt per taste

Procedure:

Blend everything to a smooth paste adding water (3/4 cup). This should be spicy (hot). Do not worry about the taste as this will be compensated by the sweet taste of tamarind chutney. The pani (water) will taste best if stored for a day and used the next day.

Sweet Tamarind Chutney

3/4 cup tamarind water (lemon size tamarind soaked in water)
1/2 cup pitted dates (chopped finely)
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1  tsp red chilli powder
jaggery per taste
salt

Procedure:

In a heavy bottom pan add the tamarind water, dates, jaggery, cumin powder, chilli powder and salt. Bring this to boil and cook until the mixture becomes thick. Turn off the heat and allow the mixture to cool. Grind this to a smooth paste

To assemble:

1 pack of mini fillo shells
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/2 cup boiled potao cut into cubes
1/4 cup chopped corriander leaves
1/2 cup boiled peas/ garbanzo beans/ moong

Bake the shells in the oven as instructed. Keep aside to cool.
