whole tuvar dal

🥗Healthier: split yellow moong dal

💰Cheaper: chana dal

Moong dal is lighter and healthier, while chana dal is more economical.

whole wheat flour

🥗Healthier: oat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Oat flour is gluten-free and nutritious, while all-purpose flour is budget-friendly.

1

Soak whole tuvar dal in water for 4-6 hours or overnight.

2

Drain the soaked dal and grind it into a smooth paste with a little water.

3

In a mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, salt, turmeric powder, cumin seeds, and asafoetida.

4

Add the ground dal paste to the flour mixture and knead into a soft dough.

5

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.

6

Divide the dough into small balls and flatten each ball into a small disc.

7

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until hot.

8

Carefully slide one puri into the hot oil and fry until it puffs up and turns golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

9

Remove the puri with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

10

Repeat with the remaining dough balls, frying them one at a time.
