PURI

Poori Ingredients

You will need:

• 1/3 c. white flour
• 1/3 c. whole wheat flour
• 1/4 c. water
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 2 tbsp. vegetable oil
• oil for frying

Make the Poori Dough

Put the whole wheat flour in a large mixing bowl or platter. Add white flour to it and salt and mix together. Now add a little water at a time and mix the flour to form dough. Knead it all together until you get a proximity of soft dough.

Then add 2 tbsp. of oil. When you do, the dough starts coming together very well until you get a nice consistency.

Shape the Poori

Oil your working surface. Then take the dough out of the bowl and knead it for another 5 minutes. Pinch about a quarter of your dough and shape it into a ball. Roll each ball into a 3 inch round. Repeat the same with the rest of your dough. Each poori is made right before frying.

Fry the Poori

Fill your wok/deep fry pan with oil and heat it on high. Deep fry the pooris one at a time, pressing very gently on each side with a slotted spoon. Keep pressing it under the oil until the poori puffs up.

Then, turn over and fry the same way on the other side. Place it on a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess oil. Pooris are made right before they're eaten.
