Here is the Puri recipe which goes really well with Potato and peas curry. I like making Puri with my daughter. She likes to divide the dough into small portions and roll them. My son likes to make snake out of the dough and eats them raw.
Puri
Ingredients
3 cups plain flour
3-tablespoon ghee
Oil for deep-frying
Warm water
Procedure
1) In a mixing bowl, shift flour, dash of salt and very gradually add enough warm water and very gently stirring as you pour. Stir in the ghee and knead the mixture into firm dough.
2) Divide the dough into 17-19 small equal portions.
3) Take one portion at a time and roll out on a rolling pin to about 5.5cm in diameter.
4) Roll one at a time and spread it in newspaper or clean white sheet.
5) In a large skillet heat enough cooking oil for deep-frying. Fry small batches at a time until both sides turn brown. ( make your Puri rise)
6) Remove with slotted spoon, drain on absorbent paper if necessary.
Serve hot or cold Puri with curry
Notes: To make your Puri rise in procedure 5. Follow this procedure add Puri in hot oil, wait for a minute. Using slotted spoon gradually stir on top of the Puri. If the Puri rises turn another side and cook until it turns light brown.
