Puran Poli is a very liked and famous stuffed sweet flat-bread originally from Maharashtra. It is made and eaten in many ways in every different parts of the state. It is prepared in every Mahrashtrain bones on Gudi Padwa, Holi and mostly all occasions and Poojas.

I occasionally made this at home but, me and my family always like to enjoy the traditional Maharashtrian Village style Puran-Polis at dhabas.

The Puran Poli served there has a very little skin of dough and has a very plump quantity of stuffing, which makes it so delicious. When this generously stuffed puran poli is served with a big dollop of ghee, it tastes really heavenly.

Once I was secretly taken to the Sewagram Ashram, kitchen (located near Wardha) on special request and the chef there, taught me their method of making this poli.

Sharing the same method I learned with .y cookpad family here.
