Whole Wheat Poori – Quick & Puffy Recipe

Ingredients:

Whole wheat flour – 2 cups

Salt – ½ tsp

Oil or ghee – 1 tbsp (for dough)

Water – as needed (about ¾ cup)

Oil – for deep frying

Instructions:

1. Make the dough: In a bowl, mix whole wheat flour and salt. Add 1 tbsp oil or ghee and gradually add water to knead a tight (not soft) dough. Rest for 10–15 minutes.

2. Roll the pooris: Divide the dough into small balls. Roll each one into a small circle (about 4–5 inches wide). Avoid using dry flour; instead, grease your rolling surface with a little oil.

3. Fry the pooris: Heat oil in a deep pan. Once hot (not smoking), carefully slide in one poori. Press gently with a slotted spoon — it will puff up. Flip and fry both sides until golden brown.

4. Drain & serve: Remove onto a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Serve hot with dal, sabzi, or even a sweet treat!

💡 Tip: Always fry on medium-high heat for perfectly puffed pooris!

ENJOY AND HAVE A GREAT DAY ❤💜
