Halwai Style Pori

Cultural Context

Halwai Style Pori originates from the vibrant street food culture of Pakistan, where sweet and savory treats are cherished. Traditionally made by skilled halwais (sweet makers), these fluffy fried breads are a staple at celebrations and family gatherings. They are often enjoyed with spicy curries or sweet dishes, showcasing the balance of flavors in Pakistani cuisine. Today, poris are loved beyond borders, with variations appearing in Indian and Bangladeshi kitchens as well.

1

In a pan, add 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup water.

Add 1/3 cup yogurt and 1 tablespoon sugar to the mixture.

3

Incorporate 3 tablespoons of melted ghee and 2-3 pinches of salt, mixing well.

4

Whisk the mixture until well combined and smooth.

Sift and add 1/4 cup semolina, mixing it in to absorb moisture.

Add 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour gradually, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Roll each ball into a flat disc, making cuts on top to ensure they fry evenly.
