Servings20 puris
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rava / semolina/ sooji
- 1 tablespoon maida
- 1 teaspoon oil
- warm water as needed
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Add rava, maida to a wide bowl, add water little by little, knead it for 10 minutes to form a smooth dough. Add oil finally and knead it for a minute. The dough should be smooth so be careful while adding water. Keep aside for at least 15 minutes.
- Roll the dough very very thin and cut small rounds with a lid or container rim. Heat oil, carefully add the rolled puris , fluff it up(as we do for normal puris) and fry them to golden brown till crisp. Drain in tissue paper and then store in airtight container.
- You can store the puris for about 10 days. Here are the chats which uses these mini puris.
Notes
- Make sure to knead the dough well and roll it very thin. The puris will become chewy and will not raise up if the rolled puris are thick.
- Rolling was a bit tough but somehow I tried to roll thin and the puris were nice crisp like the store bought ones.
- Make sure the oil is heated up. Fry till golden brown until crispy.
- Adding soda makes the kneading and rolling easier. But if you don't have, then proceed with warm water itself. I didn't use it this time.
