Ingredients
- Dough
- 1½ cups whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta)
- Salt to taste
- 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons oil
- Stuffing
- 1 cup boiled black eyed peas (lobia/chowli)
- 4-5 garlic cloves
- ½ inch ginger, roughly chopped
- 1 green chilli
- ½ teaspoon red chilli powder
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin powder
- ½ teaspoon garam masala powder
- Salt to taste
- Oil for greasing + for deep frying
Method
- Take whole wheat flour in a large parat, add salt, 1 tablespoon oil and 1 cup water and knead into a stiff dough. Drizzle remaining oil and knead again. Cover with a damp muslin cloth and set aside for 10-15 minutes.
- To make the stuffing, put black eyed peas in a blender jar. Add garlic, ginger and green chillies and blend to a fine thick paste. Transfer it into a large bowl, add red chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder and salt and mix till well combined.
- Grease a worktop with some oil. Take a small portion of the dough and shape it into a ball. Press it and make a cavity in the centre. Stuff with a portion of the stuffing and bring the edges to the centre and press to seal. Pinch the excess dough and flatten it lightly. Roll it into a small disc.
- Heat sufficient oil in a kadai. Gently slide in the discs, one at a time, and deep fry till golden brown and crisp. Drain on an absorbent paper.
- Arrange the puris on a serving plate. Serve.
