Cooking Instructions

35 minutes
  1. 1

    In a wide bowl, place whole wheat flour, semolina, carom seeds, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, cumin seeds, green chilies, asafoetida, kasoori methi and salt.

  2. 2

    Add yogurt and mix well into the flour mixture. Slowly add water to form a slightly firm dough. Cover and allow to sit for at least 20 minutes.

  3. 3

    Now divide the kneaded poori dough. Shape them into round balls. Coat the working surface as well as the rolling pin with a little oil. Coat each ball with a little oil (do not dust with flour) and roll into a flat round shape.

  4. 4

    Heat oil in a heavy bottomed vessel or kadhai till hot. If you place a small piece of dough in the oil, it should sizzle up. Reduce heat to medium and place a rolled puri into the oil and with very gentle pressure press with the back of a slotted ladle till it puffs up.

  5. 5

    Flip over the poori and allow to cook for a few seconds till it attains a light golden shade. Place the poori over an absorbent paper towel to absorb excess oil. Prepare pooris with the rest of the balls and serve warm.
