Re: Halwa, Channa and Puri

For real? What brand? Are they available in all Costcos?
puris: deep fry small sized tortillas.
I have done that but they taste a little sweet. Is there any particular brand that you use?

Re: Halwa, Channa and Puri
Maroush, I posted this in the 'Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya' thread a while ago.
It's tried and tested by me!
My mum (who's staying with me) cooked a pakistani naashta for us yesterday. I just e-mailed the recipe to my cousin who wanted to make it so I thought let me paste it here for you guys aswell. I took some pictures but can't upload at the moment.
Halva:
1 cup sugar 1 cup sooji 2 and a quarter cup of water 200 grams of unsalted butter or ghee
Place water for boiling and add the sugar to make syrup. Add ilaichi, kishmish, badaam/coconut and leave it on slow fire after boiling. In seperate pan melt the butter/ghee, add the sooji and keep stirring till it is golden brown colour. When it's the right colour slowly add the syrup (in parts) mixture and keep stirring. When it is the right consistency it's done!
Poori:
250 grams flour (maida) pinch of salt 1 tablespoon oil pinch of kalonji seeds
Knead with water and keep it covered for half an hour.
Channay aalu:
2 cups boiled channay 2 big potatoes 1 big tomato 2 medium finely chopped onions
Heat around quarter cup of oil in a pan, add the onions and fry till golden. Add around 1 tbspoon ginger/garlic mixture and crushed green chilli's. Add all the dry masala's: red chilli powder, haldi, dhaniya powder, salt, zeera powder and a pinch of garam masala and stir. Now add the tomatoes and thori dair bhoono with a splash of water. Now add the channay (and also half a chicken stock cube, if you have it). Dissolve a tbspoon of corn flour in few tbspoons of water and add it to the channay mixture. Boil the potatoes seperately, peel and cut in small cubes and add it at the end when the channay are cooked. Sprinkle fresh dhaniya and chaat masala on top and you're done!

Re: Halwa, Channa and Puri
Use Costco brand uncooked four tortillas made with canola oil. Fry them in really hot oil for few seconds and take them out. They taste delicious.
Re: Halwa, Channa and Puri
Thanks sahar.
And they won't come out a little sweet?
