Poori Recipe For Making Soft Puffy Poori
Puri is one of my all-time favourite dish and one of the most popular Indian breakfast recipes. I make it at least twice a month, it is a popular Indian dish and taste absolutely yummy. You can use wheat flour/maida for making the poori. Feel free to add some sooji to it which will keep it puffy for a long time. This is an everyday breakfast version, which is easy to make. You can enjoy it with butter chicken, aloo tamatar ki sabji, bilahir tok, kaddu ki sabji, chole or anything you wish.
The important thing is to make the dough harder than chapatti dough. This ensures that puris remain puffy and consumes very little oil. Give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
