Instructions

Grate soaked Urad lentil with finely chopped Ginger and Green chili into a smooth paste.

You can add 2 tsp of water in grinder for ease in grating. Grated lentil is ready.

In a big bowl, add Maize flour, Wheat flour, Coriander leaves, Red Chili powder, Salt

Add Coriander powder, Mango powder, Garam masala and Asafoetida. Mix well.

Now add the grated Urad Lentil and 2 tsp Oil.

Mix all the ingredients with your hands.

Add warm water, only if it is required because the lentil itself contains water. Hence you should not need more than 2-3 tsp of water.

Box the dough for about 2 minutes. This will help in making soft pooris.

Take a small portion from dough, grease it with oil and roll into thin round shaped poori.

Follow the same pattern to make rest of the pooris.

Add enough oil in a pan and heat it on high flame.

Turn the stove to medium flame, add poori for frying.

Press the corners of the poori using spatula to help it fluff.

Fry the poori on medium flame. It will make them crispy.

When it turns golden brown from both sides, take it out from Oil.

Serve hot Poori with Aloo Subzi. Enjoy!!!
