Paani Puri
>> Saturday, December 30, 2006
Ingredients:
Cream of wheat (sooji) - 1 cup
Maida - 2 tsp
Procedure:
- In a bowl mix sooji and maida. Add water little bit at a time to make a dough (mix delicately. The consistency should be similar to poori dough.)
- Make the dough into 1/2" balls.
- Using a poori presser or tortilla maker press these balls into 2" circles.
- Add oil to a deep bottomed pan on medium heat for deep frying.
- When the oil is hot deep fry the flattened pooris (5 to 6 at a time) until they turn golden brown on both sides.
- Drain them on paper towel to remove excess oil.
Paani puris are ready to be used. Serve them with the paani (spiced water) and the chutneys.
