Puffy Poori

hmm........Poori. Poori with potato curry is a very famous dish India. Having a puffy poori on the plate on a saturday's or sunday's is a yummy time. Poori has been fav of many. Kids love it just for its puffiness. And the recipe goes here.................

Ingredients :

Wheat flour - 1 cup ( If you dont get wheat flour, you can make the poori with all purpose flour )
Maida ( all purpose flour) - 3 tsp.
Wheat flour - little in a bowl, which will be used while rolling the dough
Oil - 3 tsp
Salt - To taste
Oil - ( to deep fry)
Water - little ( Just to make the Dough)

Preparation :

* Take a vessel, add the wheat flour, all purpose flour and mix well
* Now add the salt and 3 tsp of oil and mix well.
* Now make the dough, by sprinkling or adding water.
* Keep mixing it very well. The more time you keep mixing will give more softness for the dough.
* Now after the dough is ready, keep it covered with a wet cloth, and leave it for 15 - 20 mins.


* Then take dough, and make it a small ball shape.


* Now roll it flat using the roller ( spread little bit of wheat flour, now and then to avoid the dough sitcking )
* Then take a pan, add oil, generously ( Because, we need to fry the rolled dough).
* Make sure the oil is heated well. Because if it is not really hot, then the poori will not come puffy.
* Now put the dough, making sure it is fully immersed in the oil.


* Now the poori will come pufffffffff...........Turn it on to the other side.


Thats all, puffy poori is ready to eat. Serve it hot with potato curry.......hmmmmm yumm

All of us at home love pooris but my daughter is a great fan, she is capable of eating the pooris alone ( without any sauce), appadiyey saapittu viduvaaa :)

looks well puffed and perfect, and beautifully demonstrated.

I've never tried mixing the whole wheat flour with the maida for the poori dough; will try next time :)
