    For the filling, mash the boiled potatoes and mix them with the boiled white peas (ragda) in a separate bowl.

  5. 5

    Season the potato mixture with a pinch of salt, red chili powder, and a little roasted cumin powder.

    Dip the stuffed puri into the chilled spicy water and serve immediately to ensure maximum crunch.
