Bhang Ki Chutney (Hemp Seeds Chutney) is a simple and traditional pahadi chutney commonly made in homes across Uttarakhand. Made with roasted hemp seeds, fresh coriander leaves, garlic, and green chillies, it has a rich nutty flavour with a refreshing herbal taste. The simple tempering of ghee and red chillies adds warmth and aroma. You can serve this chutney with everyday Indian meals like dal, rice, and roti. It also tastes great spread over warm ragi roti for a quick snack or light lunch. You can also serve it alongside your favourite snacks, just the way you would enjoy classic green chutney.

Pani puri is one of India’s most recognisable street snacks, loved for its burst of flavours packed into a single crisp bite. Vendors across cities serve it with their own signature pani; some are sharper with mint and chilli, others deeper with tamarind sweetness. This recipe adapts that classic experience into compact pani puri shots that are easier to serve during gatherings or match screenings. Instead of standing around a stall, guests can enjoy ready-filled puris placed in small glasses. The spicy mint water and sweet tamarind mixture balance the potato-chickpea filling, delivering the familiar tangy rush. Because the pani is chilled, these shots feel especially refreshing during warm evenings, making them a clever addition to summer IPL watch parties where quick, handheld snacks keep everyone focused on the game.
