Poori

Ingredients:

 

  • 2.5 cups chapatti flour
  • 2/3 cup water at room temperature
  • ghee
  • Oil for deep frying

 

Method to roll out the dough

 

  • Make stiff but pliable dough.
  • Cover the dough with damp cloth
  • And set aside for 30 minutes.
  • Knead dough a little again. Dough should be stiff enough to roll without extra flour.
  • Make small balls of the dough and cover them with damp cloth.
  • Take one ball of dough and dip a corner of ball in melted ghee or oil and roll it out into 4 to 5 inches round.
  • Repeat the same process to roll out all pooris.

 

Frying the Pooris

 

  • Heat plenty of oil in a kadhai until very hot.
  • Put in a poori and immediately start flickering hot oil over the top of it with a spatula so that it will swell up like a ball.
  • This should take only a few seconds. Flip the poori over and cook the other side until golden brown.
  • Serve hot with curries or vegetables.
