Palak Poori is deep fried fluffy bread prepared using Spinach. Popeye the sailor man….will love this Poori!
Time Required: 20 Minutes
Ingredients:
2 Cups Wheat Flour
1 Medium Bunch Palak / Spinach
1tsp Ajwain / Carom Seeds
Oil for deep frying
Salt to taste
Method:
Remove the stems of the leaves and wash. Boil water and blanch Spinach leaves. Strain and let it cool. Puree Spinach. In a mixing bowl add Wheat Flour, Palak Puree, Salt, Ajwain Seeds and water and knead to a dough. Divide the dough into lemon sized balls.
Heat Oil in a pan. Roll out the balls thinly on a greased surface to concentric circles. Drop them in Oil and within 2 seconds tip it over. As ever, I have to remind you to be careful when cooking with oil. You want to take care that you don’t hurt yourself or start a fire and end up bumping up next years buildings insurance quote!
Fry until light brown and remove on kitchen towels.
Serve Palak Poori with your choice of side dish.
