WHAT TO SERVE WITH ALOO MASALA PURI?
Aloo Masala Poori can be served with aloo bhaji , kurma or any sweet dish like aamras ,vermicelli payasam or shrikand .
TIPS & VARIATIONS OF ALOO MASALA PURI
- Dough should not be soft like roti or loose or sticky. It should be slight stiff yet smooth.
- Roll the aloo masala pooris of medium thickness. If it is too thin like roti then it will not puff up while frying.
- Do not forget to add semolina/sooji as it helps keep aloo poori crispy for longer.
- You can also replace Kasuri methi with finely chopped coriander leaves or mint(pudina).
- While deep frying the pooris make sure that the oil is hot sufficiently else the poori will not puff up.
