ghee

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Coconut oil offers a healthier fat alternative, while vegetable oil is a cost-effective option.

Combine 2 cups fine whole wheat flour, 2 tablespoons semolina, and 1 teaspoon salt in a mixing bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons oil and mix well.

Gradually add 3/4 cup warm water, starting with 1/2 cup and then adding 1/4 cup, mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the dough until smooth, then cover it and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Divide the dough into small balls, rolling them into golf ball-sized portions.

Roll each ball into a thin circle, ensuring the edges are thinner than the center.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan until shimmering, then carefully slide in each puri.

Fry until the puri puffs up and turns golden brown, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
