Puri used for serving the pani puri is a hollow puffed small puri made of semolina and maida (all purpose flour). Pani puri is also popularly known as Gol gappa or the gup chupp. Originally this was one of the famous Indianchaatavailable near the beaches of Mumbai city and has widely spread to all parts of the metros.

So to really have a nice hygienic pani puri the best idea would be to prepare it at home. This would make your family and you also happy without any sought of fears and concerns.
Pani puri is quite simple and easy to make. To make the puri, take semolina (sooji) in a bowl, add some salt and mix well. Add some warm water and mix to make it grainy. To make it to dough you need to add some maida to absorb the moisture. Knead the dough to medium soft dough. Rest the dough for about 20 minutes.
Roll the dough to a thin large puriand then cut using a circular cookie cutter or else you can also use a round cork and keep aside. Heat oil on medium flame for deep frying the small puris. Once the oil is heated put the small puris and allow them to fry till they puff up and than remove from the oil. The fried puris can be stored for few weeks when kept in airtight containers.
Now the puris are ready and you can make your own stuffing and tangy sauces. You can encourage your children from eating the home made pani puris as they are more healthy and nutritious. To make it more nutritious you can also stuff in some sprouts which normally children do not eat it raw.
