Instructions
- For the dough, mix the flour, salt and oil, then gradually add the lukewarm water until you get a soft, smooth dough.
- Knead for 5 minutes, cover and let rest 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, peel the potatoes, cut them into cubes and boil them 10 minutes in salted water.
- Toast the cumin in a lightly oiled pan, add the sliced onion and let it brown for 5 minutes.
- Add the chopped tomato, turmeric, garam masala and chili, then the drained potatoes. Mash them lightly and simmer 5 minutes.
- Divide the dough into small balls, flatten them into thin discs with a little oil and cut out rounds with a glass.
- Heat the oil to 180 °C and slip in the discs: they should puff up immediately.
- Fry 1 minute, pressing gently with a slotted spoon, drain and serve hot with the potato curry.
Variations and tips
Lighter version. Cook the puris dry in a hot pan for a few seconds per side, then press them so they puff up.
