Plain Masala Puri Recipe

Step-by-Step Recipe

• STEP 1.In a large mixing bowl, combine wheat flour, semolina, carom seeds, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Add oil and mix until the flour becomes crumbly. Gradually add water and knead into a stiff, non-sticky dough. Cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.

• STEP 1.Divide the dough into small balls of equal size. Roll each ball into a thin, round disc using a rolling pin. Avoid making them too thick for the best crispiness.

• STEP 2.Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Test by dropping a small piece of dough; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.

• STEP 3.Carefully slide the puris into the hot oil, one at a time. Fry until they puff up and turn golden brown on both sides. Remove and place on a plate lined with paper towels.

• STEP 4.Serve hot with yogurt, pickles, or any curry of your choice. Perfect for pairing with spicy chutneys!
