Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
today i post the recipe for poori but i dont know what happened ,its not here
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
so i am posting it here again.i treid many recipies for poori and after along search found it in an indian book.
plain flour maida 250grm i take one cup
salt 1/2 tsp
ghee 1 tbs
little hot water
sift flour and salt together.rub in one well tbs ghee,make a nice smooth dough with alittle hot watr,divide it in few samll balls and roll them into circles.and deep fry them in hot oil or ghee.fry from both sideswith aslotted ladle ,pressing gently in the middle.it will puff up when u pressed it,remmebr one thing the oil must be hot and fry it for few seconds.
my own tip
add little yeats to the dough ,it will be good
after making balls (paira) leav it for 15 min,it will be easy to roll them.
ok now allo recipe next time.
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
Thank you aaish for the recipe. YuMmMm.
How much yeast do you add? A pinch, a teaspoon?
Also, what if you dont have ghee, is this what makes all the difference? I try to use canola oil or olive as its supposed to be a lil healthier.
Can't wait for the aloo recipe. drool
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
someone told me a recipe for puris which had egg as an ingredient..
I think that will make a crispier poori.
I'll ask her and post here.
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
add one egg to the dough, results will be excellent!
For channay aloo, i make them together, let me know if u like it that way - i will then post my recipe... :)
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
Looking forward to it Sadaf.
fara, please do, thank you. YumMm.
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
i didnt add egg to the poori ,munni add 1/4 tsp of yeast to 1 cup.i always use oil for frying but add ghee to dough so cant sya about that.
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
I don’t need the recipe for any of this.
I want you guys to make all that and
invite me. :queen:
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo

Everyone's invited the day I make it, but dun blame me if it turns out rotten. blush
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
Aloo recipe....Its not Pakistani, but very simple and tasty..
Cut potatoes into medium size pieces.
Heat oil...add mustard seeds (rai) when they pop add potatoes. Stir and add salt and tumeric powder. Let it cook covered in medium heat add hot water little by little so it does not stick.
When potatoes half cooked, add 1 chopped tomato and cook few min till tomato cooked.
Now add crushed garlic (about 1tsp) dhana jeera powder (2tsp) and chilli powder.
Let potatoes cook thouroughly. Gravy should be kind of thick if you want with puri (add more water if with rice)
Add lots coriander leaves and serve.
This dish with pooris is yummy if you add deep fried capsicums (cut in 1 inch thick pieces) and salted and eaten as a condiment. Also fried popadoms and loads of yoghurt!
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
You can make very fine pooris! If you can find white-self raising flour (I found Sainsbury's in London), just add water to it! And fry it in ghee or oil! You will get very fine pooris!
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
I have a whole lot of self raising flour that i dont have a clue what to do with. Perhaps i will try making puris out of it. Thanks for the idea Mostar. Btw everyone else has nice recipes too. Cant wait to try out the alloo one. Thanks for sharing aly-sam.
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
my recipe is little similar to the ally,s recipe.i usually boil potatoes in small pices seperatly but some times not,anyway heat oil and add cumin seeds and few whole red chillies to it ,then add boil cubed potatoes or if u didnt boil them it will ok too,add it and fry for few min then add salt,turmaric powder,and crushed red chillies to it,fry for few min then add chopped tomato to it,or u can use yougert too if using yougert dont add tomatoe,fry add crused corriander seeds,little kalonji,rai, and sonfh to it,or take very little of all spices ,it will be 1 tbs together. u can achar masala to it too,or mango pickels.then add little water to make gravy.add green chillies to it.sprinkle green corriander leaves .if u are not boiling potatoes seperatly u have too add more water for cooking potatoes.
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
gosh you guys are making me hungry!! I might have to take the short cut and make puris by frying torillas and make aloo cholay :)
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
oh yumm, i’m gonna make aalo puri this wknd insha’Allah…
Re: Can someone post how to make Puri with Chole or Aloo
the easiest way to make "puri"
deep fry some flour tortilla's.....they taste great and make a great substitute for the real thing when in a hurry.
