ALOO PURI





Aloo Puri







Ingredients for Puri:



2 cups atta (whole-wheat flour)



1/2 tsp salt



1 tsp oil or ghee



oil for deep frying




Directions: Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl. Add warm water little by little to make smooth but firm dough (firmer than regular roti dough). Let the dough relax for 30 minutes under a barely-damp towel in the covered bowl. Then take about a tablespoon of dough at a time, roll it into a thin circle (using some more atta to help in the rolling process), and deep fry for a few seconds on each side until the puri is puffed and golden. Drain well on some paper towels and serve hot.






Ingredients for Aloo Bhaji:
10 large boiled and peeled potatos cut into medium sized cubes
2 tsp jeera
1tsp red chilly powder
1/2 tsp garam masala powder
1tsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt to taste
1/2 cup finely chopped Coriender leaves (Optional for garnish)
Directions: Heat oil in a wok .Put jeera to crackle, now add potatos and fry for a min. Add turmeric, red chilly, garam masala and mix well. Add salt and add 1cup water, just for little moisture. Finally add chooped coriender (optional) and serve as side dish with puri.
