Cooking steps for Aloo Ki Poori

  1. 1
    Aloo Ki Poori is like the ultimate snacky sidekick—crispy, comforting, and totally here for a good time. It's the kind of dish that makes you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside, perfect for a weekend brunch or a festive spread. If you're looking for an Aloo Ki Poori recipe that's guaranteed to win hearts, this one's got you covered.
  2. 2
    Grab your apron, ‘cause we're diving in.
  3. 3
    Start with the basics—grab a large bowl and add 2 cups of wheat flour and 2 tablespoons of rava (or semolina) for that extra crunch.
  4. 4
    Now, let's jazz things up with some spices. Toss in ¼ teaspoon of turmeric for color, 1/2 teaspoon of red chili powder for that zesty kick, 1/2 teaspoon of cumin powder for earthiness, 1/2 teaspoon of garam masala for a little warmth, ¼ teaspoon of celery seeds (for a fun, herby vibe), and 1 teaspoon of crushed kasuri methi to bring that authentic flavor. Oh, and don't forget 1/2 teaspoon of salt—seasoning is key, people. Mix it all together until those spices are fully blended, and you can already start to smell the goodness.
  5. 5
    Now, time for the mash-up. Take 3 boiled potatoes and mash them up until they're smooth and soft—make sure there are no lumps in this potato party. Add the mashed potatoes to your spiced-up flour mixture and mix everything together. Here's where things get a little fun—slowly add water, a little at a time, as you knead the dough. Be mindful, though—potatoes release moisture, so you might not need as much water as you think. You're aiming for a smooth, soft dough that's just the right consistency.
  6. 6
    Once your dough feels just right, add 2 tablespoons of oil and knead it all in for that extra smoothness.
  7. 7
    Now it's time to get rolling—literally.
  8. 8
    Break off a small piece of dough and roll it into a ball. Using a rolling pin, flatten it out to a nice, even thickness (don't stress about perfection; a little rustic charm is A-OK). Heat up some oil in a deep pan and gently drop in your rolled-out dough.
  9. 9
    Splash the oil on top of the puri to help it puff up like a fluffy cloud.
  10. 10
    Press gently to help it puff completely—this is the moment when you'll see those perfect bubbles form. Flip it over, frying it on both sides until it's golden brown and crispy.
  11. 11
    The moment you pull that aloo puri out of the oil, you'll know you've hit the jackpot.
  12. 12
    Serve it hot and fresh with some sabji or a tangy pickle on the side, and let your taste buds go wild. This Aloo Ki Poori recipe is a total crowd-pleaser—crispy, flavorful, and perfect for any occasion.
