Instructions
-
To make the puris, take maida, whole wheat flour, salt as per taste in a bowl.
-
Add 2 tablespoons oil and crumble the flour with the fingertips.
-
Start adding water little by little and knead to a stiff tight dough.
-
Cover with a moist muslin cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
-
Now, divide the dough into equal size balls and roll like chapatis.
-
Using a round cookie cutter, cut into small circles of 1 to 1 ½ inch diameter.
-
Prick each with a fork to avoid puffing up while frying.
-
Roll out all puris similarly and let them air dry for about 10 minutes.
-
Keep 2 cups of oil for heating in a thick bottom pan on medium flame.
-
When oil gets hot, lower the heat and slide in few puris at a time.
-
Let them cook on both sides until light golden brown.
-
Remove them in a sieve and let them cool.
-
Fry all the puris similarly and let them cool completely.
-
Around 25 puris will be formed.
-
Use as needed and store any extra in an airtight jar.
-
To assemble the sev puri, place 5 to 6 puris in a plate.
-
Top them with the potato pieces, chopped onion and tomato cubes.
-
Put a little spicy chutney on each puri.
-
Similarly, put little sweet chutney on all.
-
Sprinkle a tablespoon of the nylon sev and a half teaspoon of the chana dal.
-
Season with a pinch or two of the rock salt, little chaat masala and a pinch of jeera powder.
-
Lastly, garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve immediately.
-
Always make individual servings and personalize the seasonings and chutney as per taste preferences
-
Do not ready the sev puri beforehand as the puris will turn soggy after some time
