Instructions
- Make a well between the flour in a mixing bowl and add carrot and tomato puree in it. Now add the spices and ghee and mix well. Shortening(or Moen in Hindi) with desi ghee(clarified butter) gives a great texture to pooris
- Make a smooth dough, you can add little water if needed, for me the purée was enough
- Cover and let the dough rest for about 10-15 minutes
- Put a deep vessel with enough oil on the stove top to heat and while the oil is getting heated, make small Round crack free balls with the dough
- Roll them and deep-fry in medium hot oil, pressing(very light pressure) the poori while being fried gives perfect fluffy pooris.
