Pani Puri
8 crisp puri, potato-chana filling, mint pani and sweet tamarind. Jain version swaps potato for sprouted moong.
Many of our regulars follow the Swaminarayan diet, which is why every P&D restaurant offers Swaminarayan and Jain options. Every dish below can be ordered without onion or garlic at all three restaurants: Lowell, Quincy and Woburn, Massachusetts. Choose "Swaminarayan" as the preparation when you add it; the ticket the kitchen reads shows it on every line.
In our kitchen "Swaminarayan" means no onion and no garlic in any form: no raw onion on chaat, no onion in the bhaji, no garlic chutney on the vada pav, no garlic in the green chutney. Potato and other root vegetables are fine, which is what separates it from a Jain order. Our Woburn kitchen opened with a Swaminarayan-friendly menu and does the most of these orders, including catering trays for mandir events and office lunches.
Swaminarayan orders are cooked in a dedicated pan on request so they do not touch the regular onion-garlic batch. The dry garlic chutney on vada pav is swapped for a peanut-sesame chutney; the schezwan dishes cannot be made without garlic and are not listed here. For a group order, write "No onion garlic for N" in your order note or WhatsApp message and the kitchen packs those portions separately and labels them.
