Question

What does golgappa means?

Answer 1

'Golgappa' is an Indian snack item. It is also called pani puri.

It is made from small, round, puffed, hard puris which form the 'container' or shell, and mashed potatoes and cooked chick-peas along with some finely cut onions, with salt and pepper added, and the chutneys are the stuffing. Normally, there are two chutneys, the hot and the sweet, each in a large round mud (or, nowadays, metal) vessel; although sometimes there is only one. The Chutneys are what is referred to by Pani, which means water in Hindi (the main ingredient of the Chutney), and they contain tamarind and fresh mint, as well as spices including cumin and black salt. The serving person will lightly crush open the puris on one side, put into it the stuffing, and then dunk it into both the chutneys and serve you the puri, which is now full. You have to put the entire puri into your mouth at one go and bite into it. This will release the barrage of different tastes into your mouth.

Answer 2

Calvary (Golgotha) is the English-language name given to the hill outside Jerusalem on which Jesus was crucified. Calvaria in Latin, Κρανιου Τοπος (Kraniou Topos) in Greek and Gûlgaltâ in Aramaic all mean 'skull', referring to a hill or plateau containing a pile of skulls or to a geographic feature resembling a skull.

Answer 4

For convenience and understanding you may even call them small water balls.

A little modification and addition to what crazedanddazed said, besides two chutneys, a mildly spiced and cool water is filled in those hollow water balls already stuffed with what crazedanddazed has mentioned.

These water balls are made of wheat flour and/or rava.

Answer 8

Panipuri, or Pani puri, is a snack synonymous with the beaches of Mumbai. However, it is also very popular in all other parts known by many names like golgappa (plural golguppe) in North India, Foochka (Puchka) in West Bengal, Gupchup in some central parts of India like Hyderabad.

It is made from small, round, puffed, hard puris which form the 'container' or shell, and mashed potatoes and cooked chick-peas along with some finely cut onions, with salt and pepper added, and the chutneys are the stuffing. Normally, there are two chutneys, the hot and the sweet, each in a large round mud (or, nowadays, metal) vessel; although sometimes there is only one. The Chutneys are what is referred to by Pani, which means water in Hindi (the main ingredient of the Chutney), and they contain tamarind and fresh mint, as well as spices including cumin and black salt. The serving person will lightly crush open the puris on one side, put into it the stuffing, and then dunk it into both the chutneys and serve you the puri, which is now full. You have to put the entire puri into your mouth at one go and bite into it. This will release the barrage of different tastes into your mouth.

Typically, the panipuris are served in 5-8 quantities - constituting a plate. Some places offer them premade into a whole plate but the popular way is to get them one at a time from a seller/server. Everyone gets a small plate and stands around the servers cart. The server then starts making one panipuri at a time and gives it to each individual. The server has to remember everyone's preferences - one customer may want sweetened pani, another more of the filling, or more onions. He also has to keep a count of how many panipuris each person has had. The servers are renowned for remembering your choices and numbers even when serving an entire crowd. After you have had your fill of panipuris, you normally finish off with a cup of the pani, sweetened or sour depending on your taste.

While many regions in India have their own variations of panipuri, the most famous ones are the ones from UP bhaiyyas (brothers) or Biharis who operate most of the chaat stalls all over the country.
