Abstract— In this research, we investigated the impact of adding dried moringa leaves powder to panipuri-a popular and traditional Indian street food. We compared four formulations: T0 (control), T1 (3% moringa leaves powder), T2 (6% moringa leaves powder), and T3 (9% moringa leaves powder).The results revealed significant differences in nutrient content. Specifically, T3 had significantly higher levels of ash, protein, carbohydrate, energy, calcium, and iron compared to the other samples. On the other hand, T0 had the highest fat content, while T1 had the lowest moisture content. During sensory evaluation, T1 received high acceptance due to favorable color, taste, aroma, and overall appeal. T0 also received positive feedback. However, T2 and T3 received slightly lower ratings in certain attributes. Regarding color analysis, T0 exhibited the lightest color, T3 the darkest, and T1 and T2 had intermediate values. Incorporating up to 3% moringa leaves powder in semolina-based panipuri resulted in a fortified product with improved nutrition and sensory attributes. This innovation holds significant potential for addressing nutritional deficiencies and creating new business opportunities in the food industry.
