White sesame seeds are more common and less expensive.

In a mixing bowl, add 500 grams of whole wheat flour and some semolina, mixing them well together.

Add a teaspoon of turmeric powder and red chili powder to taste, along with salt to taste.

Roast carom seeds and crush them, then add to the mixture.

Crush cumin seeds and add them to the bowl as well.

Mix all the dry ingredients thoroughly.

Add chopped fenugreek leaves, ensuring they are well incorporated into the flour mixture.

Gradually add water to knead the dough, ensuring it remains smooth and not too sticky.

Knead the dough well and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.

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

Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Once the oil is hot, fry the discs one by one, maintaining a high flame initially, then reducing to medium-low to ensure they puff up properly.

Flip the puris while frying until they are golden brown on both sides.

Remove the puris and sprinkle some chaat masala on top before serving.
