• 2 cups of multi millet aata (multiple grain flour)
• Water (as needed)
• Salt (to taste)
• Oil (for frying)
1. Measure the Ingredients:
• Take 2 cups of multi millet aata in a large mixing bowl.
• Add salt to taste.
2. Add Water:
• Gradually add water to the aata. Start with a small amount and add more as needed.
• Mix the aata and water with your hands to form a dough.
3. Knead the Dough:
• Continue kneading the dough until it becomes soft and pliable.
• The dough should not be too sticky or too dry. Adjust water quantity accordingly.
4. Rest the Dough:
• Cover the dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap.
• Let it rest for about 5-10 minutes. This helps in making the dough softer and easier to roll.
5. Divide the Dough:
• After resting, divide the dough into small, equal-sized portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball.
6. Roll the Pooris:
• Take one dough ball and flatten it slightly with your hands.
• Dust it with a little dry aata to prevent sticking.
• Using a rolling pin, roll the dough ball into a small circle of about 4-5 inches in diameter. Ensure it is evenly rolled out.
7. Heat the Oil:
• Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
• The oil should be hot but not smoking. To test, drop a small piece of dough into the oil; it should rise to the surface immediately.
8. Fry the Pooris:
• Carefully slide one rolled poori into the hot oil.
• It should puff up immediately. Gently press the poori with a slotted spoon to help it puff up.
• Fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides. This should take about 30-40 seconds per side.
9. Drain Excess Oil:
• Remove the fried poori from the oil using a slotted spoon.
• Place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
10. Serve:
• Serve the hot, crispy, and healthy millet pooris with your favorite side dishes like potato curry, chutney, or yogurt.
• Ensure the dough is soft to get fluffy pooris.
• Do not over-roll the pooris; they should be thick enough to puff up.
• Maintain the oil temperature. If the oil is too hot, the pooris will burn; if it’s too cold, they will absorb excess oil.
