Puris are deep fried Indian bread, prepared with wheat flour, rava, or all purpose flour. Aloo puri is prepared with the combination of wheat flour and boiled grated potatoes to form a soft puri. Adding of rava give it a crisp and crunchiness. It can be served with any sabzi or have it as a snack with evening tea. Kids even enjoy it with tomato ketchup. These yummy puris can be prepared for any occasion/festivals or for kids tiffin or even you can carry them during travelling. Here is the recipe with step by step instructions and pictures.
1. Ingredients Preview.
2. Firstly, in a large mixing bowl, add boiled and grated potatoes.
3. Add Semolina and wheat flour to it.
4. Add salt and red chili powder to it. I have used Kashmiri Red Chili powder.
5. Add turmeric powder, carom seeds, cumin seeds and fennel seeds to it.
6. Add ginger paste and coriander powder to it.
7. Add Kasuri methi and chopped green chili to it.
8. Add Ghee and then mix all the spices, flour and potato well.
9. Crumble them completely and slowly add water as required.
10. Knead a tight and stiff dough as you make for puri.
11. Apply little oil on the dough. Cover the dough and keep it aside for 15 to 20 minutes to set.
12. After 20 minutes, when the dough is set, knead it again until smooth. Make a long log and then divide into small lemon sized lumps. Take one lump in your hand and roll it into round dough ball. Flatten it a little into a peda. Likewise, prepare all the dough balls.
13. Take one dough ball, place it on a rolling board and roll out into 3 to 4 inch diameter puri. Heat oil in a wok when the oil is sufficiently hot, add one poori.
14. To puff up the puri, press it gently with the ladle. Flip the side of the puri and continue frying until golden brown.
15. Keep the puri into tissue paper to remove excess oil. Likewise, fry all puri.
16. Aloo Puri is ready to serve. Enjoy it with chutney, pickle, curd or any sabzi.
