Healthy Poori Recipe: We Indians love puris, be it in a party or wedding. Some of our favorite dishes like chickpeas, potatoes and bhaji along with fluffy puris taste great, but amidst all this, we cannot ignore the fact that they contain high calories which can harm our health. Puris are fried, which puts them in the list of unhealthy foods.
But just imagine, if we tell you that you can make puris without a single drop of oil, would you believe it? No, but it can happen and you will be shocked to see puris made in this way. Chef Neha Deepak Shah has shared the recipe of this zero-oil puri on her Instagram. Let us know about its recipe from him.
Are puris crispy without oil?
In this video, Neha Deepak Shah has used water instead of oil, which is considered very good for health as well. This does not affect their structure either. You can expect the same golden brown color and crispness. Its taste is as delicious as the taste of oily puris. Before you learn this method, let us tell you that to make healthy puri, you will need an air fryer at home.
How to make oil-free puri
You can see in the video that Neha has told how to make oil-free puri. He said that first of all you knead the wheat flour. Add a little salt and two spoons of curd in it so that the puris become soft and also crispy. After kneading the dough, start rolling the puris. Then pour water in a pan and boil it. Put puris in that water. Cook them for about 2 to 3 minutes or when the puri starts rising, take it out.
How to make puris on steam and air fryer?
Apart from this, you can also steam these puris. Place a strainer over a pan of boiling water. Place puris on it and cover it with a plate or lid. Steam the puris for 2 minutes and then take them out. Now comes the turn of air fryer. First you pre-heat it at 180 degrees which takes about 10 minutes. Then turn the puris into it and cook for 4 minutes. Your hot and fluffy puris are ready.
