How to Make Puri Bhaji/ पुरी भाजी – Easy Step-by-Step Instructions.

Preparation Steps for Puri Bhaji

1. Make the Puri Dough In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add water and knead to form a smooth and firm dough. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 20-30 minutes.

2. Prepare the Bhaji: Boil the potatoes until soft, then peel and mash them. In a pan, heat some oil and add cumin seeds. Once they splutter, add chopped onions, green chilies, and ginger. Sauté until the onions turn translucent.

3. Add Spices Stir in turmeric powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well, then add the mashed potatoes. Combine everything and cook for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and set aside.

4. Roll the Puris: Divide the rested dough into small balls. Roll each ball into a small circle, about 4 inches in diameter, ensuring it’s not too thick.

5. Fry the Puris: In a deep frying pan, heat oil until hot. Carefully slide in the rolled puris, one or two at a time, and fry until they puff up and turn golden brown on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels.

6. Serve: Plate the puris alongside the potato bhaji, and serve with chutneys for dipping. Enjoy this delightful meal warm!
