Whole Wheat spicy Farsi Puri (Indian snack)

  • Whole wheat Spicy Farsi puri. 
  • (128 servings each serving is 20 calories)
  • Ingredients:
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour (Roti/chapati atta is ok too)
  • 30 g (1/4 cup), Besan/Gram Flour
  • 0.05 cup, sesame seeds, whole, dried
  • 1 tablespoon or as per taste black pepper, (freshly ground)
  • Salt as per taste
  • 1 crushed green hot pepper (chili) jalapeno (or as per your taste)
  • 1/2 cup, Chopped cilantro
  • 2 Tsp (8 grams), Whole Cumin Seeds
  • 2 teaspoon, Ajwain (Carom) Seeds
  • 4 tbsp (8g), 100% Pure Corn Starch
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz), Water - Municipal
  •  Oil - Vegetable, for deep frying (Initially I heated 3 cups but used only about 10 tablespoons which is 3/4 cup. This is after the puris were drained on a kitchen paper towel) 
  • Method: 
  • Mix the wheat flour and gram flour, sesame seeds, cumin seeds, carom seeds, pepper, salt, crushed jalapeno and chopped cilantro and add about two to four tablespoons of oil and mix well with your hand. Do NOT add corn starch in this mixture. 
  • Knead well with adding water slowly so that it comes out to be good firm dough. Do not add any more water. We want the dough to be hard and firm for the puris to be crispy. More water make it soft for puris to be not crispy. Cover the dough and keep it aside for 15-20 minutes.
  • Divide into 8 balls and roll out each to resemble like a chapati or tortilla. Spread a little oil and sprinkle corn starch. Roll into a cylinder shape and cut into 16 even parts by cutting into half and 1/4 etc..Cover each of these small portions under a clean cloth. After you have made all 128 parts. Roll out each using a rolling pin just once or twice. 
  • Heat the 3 cups of oil in a frying pan on a medium high heat. Reduce the heat and deep fry the puris in batches of 10 or so until golden brown on medium heat. (Make sure the oil is heated well before you start frying by trying to throw in a tiny portion of the dough to see if it comes up.) Let oil drain as you remove puri batches with a perforated spoon/laddle and place them on the paper towels to remove excess oil. Let it cool. Store in an air tight container. This snack stays longer than a month. Enjoy with tea or coffee or on its own or with yogurt etc..
