FAQ
Why don't my pooris puff? For a perfectly puffed poori, roll the dough evenly to a disc that is not too thin or too thick. If they are too thin they will turn crisp like papads and won't puff. If they are too thick then also they won't puff.
The more the dough is allowed to sit, the more oil it soaks up while being deep fried. So for poori, start making them in not more than 10 minutes after kneading the dough is completed , to avoid a lot of oil soaking.
Sajjappalu are deep fried sweet puris; in Andhra, we make this with a sugar stuffing. There is a similar dish in Karnataka with a stuffing of coconut & jaggery along with a slightly different dough base.
Puris are prepared with wheat flour, either atta (whole wheat flour) or sooji (coarse wheat flour).
A flavorless oil that has a high smoke point, like peanut oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, avocado oil or canola oil works best to deep-fry foods like pooris.
