Stuffed puri
Stuffed Puri is also a good option for breakfast as well as for lunch. Simple poori usually gets hard, when it gets cooled. It stays soft for a long time when stuffed with masala. You can use your favorite vegetables to fill it. Here I will use spicy tangy potato masala. However, there is no need for any other side dish, you can serve it with raita or chatni, whatever you like.
Ingredients
For dough;
- 2 cup wheat flour
- 1 tsp salt
- Water as required
For potato masala;
- Finely chopped 2 onions
- Finely chopped 1 tomato
- Cooked and mashed 3 potatoes
- Turmeric powder 1 tsp
- Chilli powder 1 tsp
- Oil for deep fry
- Salt to taste
How to make stuffed puri
- Create the filler first. Cumin seeds are added to hot oil in a kadai and are allowed to crackle.
- Cook for 5 minutes after adding the onions. Salt, turmeric powder, and red pepper flakes should all be combined.
- Mix well after adding the tomatoes. Cook until it becomes mushy.
- After that, incorporate the cooked potatoes well. Remove it and let it cool.
- In a bowl, combine the salt and wheat flour. Once the dough is stiff, add water gradually. Give it five minutes to relax.
- Make equal quantities of the dough. Make two balls out of it, then shape them into pooris.
- One of the rolled pooris should have a tablespoon of filling in the center, water around the sides, and another poori to cover it. To cut the poori into a precise round shape that will puff up wonderfully, use the lid of a steel jar as a cutting board.
- Then, after the oil is hot enough to deep-fry, fry the poori till golden brown on all sides. Get rid of a paper towel.
- Now it is ready to serve.
Poha recipe
The most famous Indian breakfast in western and central India is Poha. This dish doubles as a quick mid-afternoon snack and is made with flattened rice, potatoes, onions, and seasonings including cilantro, curry leaves, and mild spices.
How to make poha?
Wash the ingredients with water and let them soak in a strainer before preparing pohe ka nashta. Verify that every one of the poha flakes is wet. Gather the ingredients, which should include onions, potatoes, peanuts, and spices. Cut the potatoes, onions, and fresh green peppers into dice.
- Over a medium-high burner, pour some oil into a heavy-bottom pan and place it on the cooktop.
- Thereafter, if desired, stir in the peanuts and thoroughly sauté them in the oil. In the event that you are allergic to peanuts or don’t like them, you can skip this step.
- Remove the well-roasted peanuts from the pan and place them on a dry plate once they have finished roasting.
- Add the cumin and mustard seeds to the oil after that, and allow them to start to sizzle.
- To the oil, add the curry leaves, green chili slices, and diced onions and thoroughly sauté them.
- Thereafter, add the diced potatoes, combine them thoroughly with the onions, and cover the skillet for two to three minutes.
- After that, add the strained poha, turmeric, salt, and sugar to the pan. Till the poha turns yellow, continue gently combining all of them.
- Close the cover and turn off the heat. The reserved roasted peanuts (if used) should be combined with some fresh lime juice.
- Fresh cilantro leaves or other garnishes, such as sev or pomegranate seeds, go perfectly with this delectable poha for breakfast.
