Ingredient

1 1/2 Cups

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

In a bowl, add whole wheat flour (atta) Sprinkle salt and sugar. Add ½ Tbsp oil and reserve ½ Tbsp for kneading Mix salt, sugar and oil into flour Slowly add water little by little. Gather flour together as you add water When it starts coming together add water little by little Knead into a dough, apply oil, knead again Cover in cling wrap or kitchen towel, set aside for a good 2-3 hours.

* Step 2

To make puris, pinch balls off the soft dough Using a rolling pin roll into a disc (it should not be very thin). Dust with flour as required If you like to make perfect round puris use a large-sized cookie cutter or a round lid, and cut into a round puri. I generally prefer handmade ones but showing here for demonstration Make the rest of the puris and pile them up. Meanwhile heat oil in a deep Kadai or pan or low-medium heat To fry puris, gently slide a rolled-out puri into the oil.

* Step 3

Push puri downwards slowly into oil with the back of a karchi/spoon and let it puff up Once golden and puffed up, remove on a paper towel and let it absorb excess oil. Make remaining puris the same way Serve immediately with aloo masala or veg saagu or chutney
