Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients along with 2 tablespoons of oil. Mix them well.

- The dough should be of stiff consistency. Cover with a damp cloth and keep it aside for 25 to 30mins
- Now, divide the dough into 4 to 5 equal balls.
- Heat enough oil in a kadhai.
- Take a ball, lightly grease it and roll it out into a thin disc ( approx 2-3 mm thickness)
- Prick it all over and cut it with any round cutter depending upon the size of the pooris you prefer
- Once the oil is hot, deep fry the puris on medium flame until crisp and golden.
- Drain it on an absorbent paper.

- Cool them and store them in a clean airtight container up to 2 weeks.
- Enjoy them with a cup of tea at breakfast or tea time.
