How to make Poori
Just mix up all the ingredients. Roll it into a slightly thick dough. Deep fry in oil. Yummy pooris are ready to serve. Those who are health-conscious may dislike this because of deep-frying. But I would say, having this occasionally is not a sin. You can have this on your cheat day. [caption id="attachment_7448" align="aligncenter" width="769"]
