Puri, Deep-Fried Bread



Für 8 Pieces

Zutaten

  • 225 g Chappati flour
  • - or
  • - Wholemeal flour
  • - sifted
  • 1/2 TL Salt
  • 25 g Butter
  • 150 ml Water
  • Oil for deep frying
  • This bread takes about 1 1/2 hours to prepare. Sift the flour 2 and salt into a bowl, then rub in the butter with your fingers. Add the water and work the ingredients together to make a firm dough. Knead the dough for about 4 minutes, then leave it to rest for 1 hour.

    Divide the dough into eight portions and roll each piece into a ball. Flatten the balls into small discs about the size of the palm of your hand, then roll them out to give rounds measuring 10 cm in diameter and 3 mm thick.

    Heat the oil for deep frying to 185c/370F and deep fry each puri, pouring hot oil over the exposed surface of the bread during cooking to make it puff up. Serve hot.
