METHI PURI


This is a Gujarati snack.

INGREDIENTS:

Whole wheat flour - 3 cups
Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp.
Cumin powder - 1/2 tsp.
Chilli powder - 1/4 tsp.
Rawa/sooji - 1 tablespoon
Fresh methi leaves finely chopped - 1 cup
Salt - as per taste
Oil - for frying

METHOD:

Mix all the ingredients alongwith a tablespoon of oil. Add little water and knead it to a firm dough. Roll out. Cut small pooris out of it. Use a small lid for even- shaped pooris. ( I used a curved spoon to get curved edges). Deep fry in oil. When cool, store in an airtight container.
Note: Kasuri methi can be used instead of methi leaves.

& awards from Indrani
Thanks Indra for remembering me. I pass on the awards to all my co-bloggers.
