How To Make Pani Puri For Travel?

Pani Puri, off lately, is a global appetizer snack and everyone prefer to have it in any climatic conditions. Kids, specially, love Pani Puri for its tangy and spicy taste. But the problem is with the Pani Puri stalls as the water used is most of the times unsafe and hardly the sellers/ chat makers are hygienic. Children are never ready to sacrifice snacks under these conditions and pressurize parents for buying them which further may result in Diarrhea, Food Poisoning, Dengue, Viral Fever etc.

Today, I shall help all those lovely mothers who wish to take a better care of children while travelling and also with the quick travel food preparation. Take a look.
