‘Patty Or Puff?’ Desis Debates Over India’s Favourite Snack: ‘Hum Toh Paeteej Kehte Hai’

Across India, nearly every region has its version of patty or puff, which is filled with tasty stuffing, whether it's baked, steamed or fried. Both are comfort foods that satisfy cravings. While the terms ‘patty' and ‘puff' are often used interchangeably because they share similar ingredients and preparation methods, slight differences in texture or style can spark debate. Recently, a social media user triggered a funny discussion by asking people to choose between the two names, leading to hilarious opinions and arguments.

The comment section quickly filled with funny reactions, as people pointed out that patties and puffs are basically the same thing. While most users called them either patty or puff, the discussion grew even more amusing when some shared that in certain regions, these snacks are also called baked samosas.

Taking to Reddit, an individual asked, “What do you call this patty or puff?"

Reacting to the post, a user wrote, “A lot of people know it by Petis and not Patties."

Another shared, “Definitely puff. Patty is put inside a burger."

“I call it Baked samosa. Will society accept me?" a comment read.

An individual stated, “Veg puff. I like the noodle puff more."

Another mentioned, “Pateesss. With the elongated hissing sound."

One more added, “The name makes no difference, it is yummy that I can say."

Where It's Called A Puff and Where It's Called A Patty

In Northern and Eastern regions, people sometimes use the word patty, while in other regions, puff is more common. The term is more widely used in Maharashtra.

If This Is Patty, Then What's The Tikki Inside Burger Called

Patties are often filled with vegetables, meat or other ingredients, and while many patties are baked or fried like puffs, the texture is slightly different.

What Is The Correct Name Of This Snack

The correct name depends on the type of preparation. A puff is light, flaky and layered, giving it a crisp texture. On the other hand, a patty can be crispy on the outside and soft inside. Essentially, both are similar snacks, but the main difference lies in their texture or fillings.
