Jeera Puri


This is simple and delicious snack which even the kids will love to have at any time. It can be eaten just as it is or with any side dishes.. It can be taken while travelling as these Puris remain fresh for 4-5 days .

Ingredients:

Maida 1/4 kg.
Jeera (Cumin seeds) 1 tbsp
Ajwan ½ tsp
Oil to fry
Salt to taste


Method:-

1) First sieve maida.
2) Heat 1 tbsp oil and pour into maida.
3) Add jeera , Ajwan and salt .
4) Now adding little water, knead the flour and make soft spongy dough.
5) Keep aside for 20-30 mins.
6) Take little portions from the dough and make round balls. Roll out each ball into a small puri.
7) Heat enough oil in a pan as it is deep fried. Wait till the oil is piping hot.
8)Using the ladle press it in the center gently along the edges. Puris will start puff. Turn the puri other side fry till light golden brown.
9)Remove it from oil and keep it on tissue paper.
10) Serve hot or cool nicely and store in airtight container.

Tips : Use little oil to roll out the balls not flour like you do in chapati.
These Puris remain fresh for 4-5 days.
