POORI

 

I made medium sized poori due to the  size of the pan I had. As everything was in packing kindly bear with my dishes .They are not as attractive to display.Mixing for poori is the same as for chaapthi but I added little rava to that to make it pluffy for a long time. You can add hot oil when mixing the dough  for extra crispness.

 

 



                                (This picture is from other source. Somehome I missed taking snap of this step.I will POST my own picture during my next poori making process).



    

 

Now after deep frying in the oil the poori turns out too fluffy.
