What Are Gujarati Puri Snacks?
Puri snacks are a cornerstone of Gujarati tea-time culture. Unlike the soft, puffed puri you'd serve with a curry, Gujarati puri snacks are thin, flat and fried until beautifully crisp - almost cracker-like in texture, but far more flavourful. They're made from a blend of flours (typically wheat, semolina and gram flour), pressed flat, and fried or baked with aromatic spices baked right into the dough itself.
The result? A snack that's deeply savoury, with layers of flavour you don't get from a plain crisp. Think black pepper warmth, cumin earthiness, a hint of sesame - and that satisfying crunch that makes you reach for one more. They're the kind of crispy Indian snacks that pair naturally with a hot cup of chai, but honestly, they don't need an excuse.
Our Puri Snacks Range
We keep our range focussed - because quality always beats quantity. Every puri we make is crafted in the UK using traditional Gujarati recipes that haven't changed since our family first started making them. Here's what's in our puri snacks collection:
Pharsi Puri – The Peppery Classic
If you've been searching where to buy Pharsi Puri online in the UK, your search ends here. Our Pharsi Puri is perhaps the best-known variety in the Gujarati snack canon - thin, crispy rounds made with plain flour, semolina and gram flour, spiced with cumin seeds, black pepper and sesame. The flavour is bold without being overpowering: a warm peppery kick, a subtle nuttiness from sesame, and that golden, almost addictive crunch.
Available in a generous 175g pack at just £3.99, Pharsi Puri is a brilliant everyday snack and an even better party crowd-pleaser. Pair with green chutney, tamarind sauce or just enjoy straight from the bag. It's one of the best Gujarati puri snacks in the UK - and our customers agree, rating it 4.88 out of 5.
Methi Puri – The Earthy, Herb-Spiced Favourite
Methi Puri takes everything you love about a classic puri and adds the distinctive bittersweet depth of fenugreek (methi) leaves. It's an earthy, warming snack with more complexity than the standard variety - popular with those who like a little more character in their traditional Indian snacks.
Our Methi Masala Puri is made with the same care as all our snacks - handcrafted in the UK, fried to a perfect crisp, and packed in resealable packaging to keep it fresh. At 175g for £3.99, it's one of those snacks you'll find yourself ordering again and again. If you're looking to buy methi puri online in the UK, this is the one to try.
Pani Puri – Ready-to-Fill Crisp Shells
A staple of Indian street food culture, our Pani Puri shells are hollow, crisp and ready to fill with whatever takes your fancy - spiced water, tamarind chutney, chole, or a tangy yoghurt mixture. If you've never made pani puri at home, these shells make it genuinely easy, and if you're a seasoned hand, you'll appreciate the consistent, even crispness that holds up to filling without crumbling. Available from £2.50 per pack.

There's no wrong way to eat a puri snack, but here are a few combinations that work particularly well:
- Pharsi Puri + green chutney – The herby freshness of coriander chutney cuts beautifully through the black pepper warmth.
- Methi Puri + masala chai – The bitterness of fenugreek and the spice of chai were practically made for each other.
- Pani Puri shells + tamarind water & chole – Fill them up, dunk them, eat in one bite. Messy, delicious, and entirely worth it.
- Mixed puri platter + yoghurt dip – Arrange a mix of pharsi and methi puris alongside a cooling raita for effortless Diwali entertaining.
