Poori

Growing up Poori would be the breakfast on most of the weekends at home.Poori is made from wheat flour and deep fried in oil.It can also be made with all purpose flour.This happens to be my son's favourite food.He can eat this for breakfast, lunch or dinner.Poori goes well with vegetable saagu, chole,potato gravy etc etc.Today I made poori with vegetable saagu.The ingredients to make poori:

Ingredients:

1 Cup Wheat flour

1/2 Tsp Salt

Water
Oil for deep frying

Method:

Combine Wheat flour and salt in a bowl.Add the required amount of water and make the dough not too soft or too hard.Let the dough rest for about 20 minutes.

Heat oil in a kadai.while the oil is heating, make small balls out of the dough and roll it.The rolled ball should not be too thick or too thin.Slide the rolled poori into hot oil and gently press it with the back of a slotted spoon.At this point the poori will puff up, then flip it over and cook till it turns golden brown.Drain the excess oil off the poori on a paper towel.Serve hot pooris with anything of your choice.I made vegetable saagu to go with this.
