Puri ( Indian Fried Bread)




I got this awesome recipe from one of my friends and wanted to give it a try for lunch.  It over exceeded my expectations and the bread itself puffed up nicely when fried.  I paired it with some vegetable kurma.



INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup  whole wheat flour / Atta flour

1/2 cup of all purpose flour

2 tb semolina / Suji

1/2 tsp salt

1 tb oil

Some water


METHOD


1.  Mix all the dry ingredients and oil.  Add the water a little at a time.  Dough should not be too soft.  

2.  Roll out into small balls, cover with damp towel and set aside for at least 20min.

3.  Using a small rolling pin, flatten each ball and not to thin or flat. If it stick to the counter, add some oil.

4.   Heat up oil till it’s really hot.  Place the rolled dough one at a time and gently move it around with a             tong taking care not to punch hole or it will not rise.

5. Once it has puffed up, turn it so the other side can cook.  Do not leave it in the oil too long.  This takes about less than 5 min.

6.  This can be eaten with potato masala, any type of curry or I sometimes just like to eat it plain.
