Puris

16 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
cup Water
1 tablespoon Melted Butter Or Ghee
2 teaspoons Vegetable Oil
Ghee Or Oil For Deep Frying

Directions

Cooking Time: 40 Minutes

Place the flours in a bowl, add enough of the water to make a soft pliable dough. Add the melted butter, knead until smooth. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth, leave in a warm place for one hour. Divide into 16 pieces and, using a little oil on the hands, shape into balls. Grease the rolling pin and board with oil, roll each ball into a thin pancake. Heat the ghee until smoking hot, place a puri in the frying pan. Turn immediately and press with a fish slice (slotted spatula or pancake turner) until the puri puffs up. Cook until golden. Drain on absorbent paper, serve as soon as possible.
