Gangani

Gangani is a traditional Indian dish originating from the state of Gujarat. It is a popular street food and is often served as a snack or a light meal. The dish consists of a crispy, flaky pastry filled with a mixture of spiced potatoes and peas. The pastry is typically made from a dough of flour, water, and oil, which is then rolled out and cut into small squares or rectangles. The filling is prepared by sautéing potatoes and peas with a blend of spices such as cumin, coriander, turmeric, and red chili powder. The filling is then mixed with salt and water to form a thick paste, which is spread onto the pastry squares. The filled pastries are then deep-fried until golden brown and crispy. Gangani is often served with green chutney or tamarind chutney, which adds a tangy and spicy contrast to the dish. It is a popular snack in Gujarat and is also enjoyed in other parts of India.
