Wheat flour

Semolina

Water

Salt

Mix together flour, salt, rava and oil in a large mixing bowl.

step 1

Pour cup water. Begin to make a little stiff & tight dough, adding more water as needed. (check video).

step 2

Smear tsp oil, knead lightly and smoothen the ball.

step 3

Do not knead it a lot otherwise poori will turn soft and absorb oil while frying.

step 4

Keep the dough covered all the time until the last poori is rolled. Do not rest the dough for more than 3 to 5 minutes. The longer it rests quicker the puffed puri will collapse. They will turn oily after frying.

step 5

Divide the dough to 8 to 10 portions. Avoid kneading them.

step 6

Smoothen all the balls by rolling them lightly in between your palms. Keep them covered in the bowl.

step 7

Drizzle a few drops of oil on the rolling area and spread it.

step 8

Smear oil over the dough ball & flatten it.

step 9

Begin to roll it evenly from the center to a round puri.

step 10

It should not be too thick or thin. It must be moderately thick which helps the puri to puff.

step 11

Make 5 to 6 puris and set them aside. Do not stack them.

step 12

Begin to heat the oil on a medium high flame and continue to make rest of the pooris.

step 13

The oil has to be hot enough. Check by dropping a small portion of dough to the pan. It has to rise immediately without browning.

step 14

If it browns quickly then reduce the flame slightly and allow the temperature to come down.

step 15

Slide the puri carefully to the hot oil. Do not disturb until it rises half way to the surface.

step 16

Quickly but gently begin to press down with a perforated ladle. This helps the poori to puff well.

step 17

Once puri puffs, flip it carefully. Fry on the other side as well until golden and crisp.

step 18

You can fry flipping too and fro once more until slightly crisp & to get the desired color light golden to dark golden.

step 19

Remove the puri to a steel colander. Fry the next poori the same way.

step 20

Make sure the oil is hot enough, but not smoking before frying the next puri. Serve poori with potato curry, chutney or kurma.
