Pani puri is INDIAN eatable, no where in the world prepare. in other countries also prepare by Indians only.  The name gol gappa refers to the fact that crisp sphere (gol) is placed in the mouth and eaten (gappa) at one time, without biting. Pani comes from the Hindi word for water and puri (or poori) is the name of an Indian bread made by frying dough in oil.
