Ingredients
For Dough
- 1 cup wheat flour
- 1 tbsp oil
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp carrom seeds (ajwain)
- water to knead
For Stuffing
- 4 boiled potatoes
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp red chili powder
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- ¼ tsp garam masala
- 1 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
For Frying

Instructions
- Take flour, salt, carom seeds, and oil in a bowl or platter.

- When the dough is kneaded, rest it for 20 minutes.
- Peel and mash the potatoes in a mixing bowl.
- Add all spices and chopped coriander leaves.
- Mix all the ingredients well, and the filling is ready.
- Now make a dough ball from the rested dough.
- Roll it into a small circle.
- Then put a spoonful of filling in the center of the rolled circle.
- Close the edges of the filling so that the filling covers properly.
- Now roll it carefully again into a 3-to 4-inch circle.
- Heat oil in a kadai over high heat.
- When the oil is heated, drop the rolled circle into it.
- Roast it from both sides by pressing with a slotted spoon until fluffy or a brown shade.
- When it achieves a brown color, remove it and drop another one.
- Serve it with pickle or butter.
Notes
- Seal the edges of rolled poori to prevent leaking.
- Roll the poori gently to spread the stuffing evenly.
- Fry the poori over medium-hot heat for perfect texture.
- Avoid overstuffing the dough unless it bursts in the hot oil.
- For extra aroma, add some ginger-garlic paste.
