Golgappa and pani puri are often featured in bizarre food videos. Vloggers as well as street vendors seem to love experimenting with these popular treats. We can make a long list of unusual pani puri versions we have come across in this year itself. Among the latest ones taking the internet by storm is "Rice Paper Golgappa." A viral video showing how to make the puris featured in this delicacy using rice paper has left the Internet divided. While some have been impressed by this "gluten-free" variety of this famous snack, others have found the concept unappetising.

In the Instagram reel by @thakursistersofficial, the vlogger shows a brief, step-by-step method to prepare this unconventional golgappa at home. She first takes two large rice papers and soaks them on top of each other. She then uses a cookie cutter to cut smaller circles of the paper. Once they are ready, she cooks them in an air fryer. (But she mentions that they can be deep-fried too). Later, she is seen filling these "delicate" puris with the regular golgappe ka pani. Watch the complete video here:
