Ragi Poori
Poori, I love it so much..We make them atleast once a week, or i will surely miss them so much. But most of the time we make our normal poori and potato masala. But sometime i want to try it out differently, so i go for my methi poori or stuffed potato poori or even my palak poori.
Couple days back, i just want to make poori, but wanted to give a twist. I found a packet of ragi flour lying in the fridge. So decided to use that up. I remembered the recipe which my perimma gave me. Immediately gave it a shot. To my surprise it turned out so yummy. I served it with aloo matar and hubby loved it so much..So give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.

How to make Ragi Poori Recipe

- Add in wheat flour and ragi and knead to form a stiff dough.
- Divide this into small balls. Take one ball and roll them into pooris.
- Heat oil for deep frying. Drop poori in hot oil, press on the top using a slotted spoon.

Can we make dis dough overnight n use it nxt morning? Wud thr b ne problem if we refrigerate it?
fathima
Try adding little salt to hot oil while frying.....so that the fried items doesn't absorb oil.......

i not sure why mine didnt puff.the dough sticks to my slotted spoin when i press.
is it too much water..or left out at room temperature too long?
Aarthi
@Li Yoke Hoit may be because dough is not firm or it may be too saft. Or the oil which u fried is not hot enough
