Beetroot Puri


This is another recipe I learnt from my mother-in-law, also my entry for Priya's/Harini's FIC pink/rose event.

Ingredients
  • 3 cups wheat flour (atta)
  • 1 medium sized beetroot
  • 1/2 tsp chilly powder
  • 1/4 tsp cumin powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Water
  • Oil

Directions
  • Grate the beetroot and beat into a paste using a blender
  • Add salt, chilly powder and cumin powder to the paste
  • Add the wheat flour and just enough water to make a tight dough
  • Keep aside covered for about an hour
  • After an hour, roll into puris and deep fry in oil
