Dal puri Moricien

The day before you make this recipe soak the yellow peas in water overnight.

Drain and rinse the peas and boil in fresh water until just tender.

Drain well and blend the peas in a blender or food processor. Add salt to taste.

Place the flour, food colouring and 2 pinches of salt into a large bowl and mix well. Add water a little at a time and mix until a smooth dough is formed.

Knead for about 5 minutes, cover with damp cloth and set aside for 20-30 minutes.

Form the dough into balls about the size of a golf ball and make an indent in the center of each ball. Stuff with about a tablespoon of the yellow pea mixture and seal the dough around the filling. Roll the balls out on a floured surface to very thin rounds.

Brush a frying pan with oil and cook each dholl puri over high heat for about 2 minutes on each side. Before flipping and cooking the other side, brush with some more oil.
