Buttermilk Puris
Description
These puris are crispy and soft! They go great with any soup or curry dish!
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup buttermilk, or you can use plain yogurt
- 1/4 tsp salt
Method
1. Combine the buttermilk and baking powder.
2. Mix together using a whisk then let it sit for 3 minutes. You will notice that the mixture begins to bubble.
3. In a separate bowl add the flour and salt. Then just like when making chapatis, add the buttermilk mixture a little at a time while mixing the flour into a dough.
4. When you have formed a nice dough, let it sit with a cover for 30 minutes.
5. After 30 minutes, roll the dough into little balls, again just like when making chapatis.
6. Next roll each ball out into a thin circle. If you are working alone, it is best to roll out all the dough first so that you can concentrate on frying. Heat the frying oil to 375F/190C.
7. Now time to fry them up! Place one chapati into the oil and fry one side for 30-45 seconds and flip over and fry the other side. Use a utensil to push the puri into the oil while it is cooking.
8. When the puris turn a slight golden color, they are done. Place on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Continue this process until you have finished making all the puris.
9. Now you are ready to offer to Kṛṣṇa with love and devotion! You can served these Buttermilk Puris with "Easy Potato Curry".
