Ingredients

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 3 medium potatoes
• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 medium green chili
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
• 4 cups oil for frying

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of oil. Mix well.

2. 2

   Gradually add 1 cup of water to the flour mixture, kneading to form a smooth and firm dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

3. 3

   While the dough is resting, prepare the Aloo Sabzi. Peel and chop 3 medium potatoes into small cubes.

4. 4

   In a pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds and let them splutter.

5. 5

   Add 1 medium green chili (finely chopped), 1 inch piece of ginger (grated), and 2 cloves of garlic (minced) to the pan. Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.

6. 6

   Add the chopped potatoes to the pan along with 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon of coriander powder, and salt to taste. Mix well.

7. 7

   Cover the pan and cook on low heat for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender.

8. 8

   Once the potatoes are cooked, add 1 teaspoon of garam masala and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro. Mix and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

9. 9

   After the dough has rested, divide it into small balls (about 10-12). Roll each ball into a small circle, about 4 inches in diameter.

10. 10

    In a deep frying pan, heat 4 cups of oil on medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F).

11. 11

    Carefully slide one puri at a time into the hot oil. Fry until they puff up and turn golden brown, about 1-2 minutes on each side.

12. 12

    Remove the puris with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat the process for the remaining puris.

13. 13

    Serve the hot puris with the Aloo Sabzi and enjoy your delicious Indian breakfast!
