    Coconut Poli Recipe with step by step pictures. Thengai Poli made using coconut jaggery stuffed inside flat bread and cooked in ghee.

    Coconut Poli Recipe

    Coconut Poli is a delicious stuffed poli which taste amazing. It is so easy to make and is great for any festive occasions.

    Puran poli is one of my favourite sweet. For me puran poli has to be soft, flaky and thin..When you try to make them at home they turn out to be like a thick stuffed paratha, but the store bought ones are super thin and soft. This kadambur poli is complete different from that, it is thick and has a rich jaggery chana dal mix. This has an addition of coconut too. Taste so delicious
