Poori, puffed fried Indian bread needs only 2 ingredients - wheat flour and oil and no leavening agents. It is one of the most common bread served on special occasions with all sorts of curries. 

Poori is also popular street food. In India, early morning, you can spot street-vendors selling fresh prepared poori and spicy chickpea curry.. famous as Chole Poori.

Nothing can beat comfort of a well prepared puffed poori with a spicy Indian curry. So today I thought to share this easy recipe for you all.

Poori is very easy to prepare but to make poori puff perfectly when frying.. it is important to take care of thickness while rolling. If poori is rolled too thin.. it will not puff when fried. Also if dough is very loose, it will not fry as well.

  1. I love poori. But since it is deep fried we try to avoid making it too often. Can you tell me how to make spinach dough for green poori. Thanks
