Puri

Roti style bread

Ingredients:
500g plain flour
250ml water
1 tablespoon oil
500ml extra oil for cooking the puri

Method:
1. Mix the flour and the water together in a bowl (with a wooden spoon or your
hands) until it becomes like a sticky dough.
2. Form the dough into a ball.
3. Take a small handful of dough, and roll out on a floured surface (until it is the
size of a large outstretched hand)
4. Heat the oil in a fry pan and place uncooked roti in the hot oil. Cook for only
1 minute or until it becomes golden brown and light and puffy.

*To make chapati (pictured on page 38) the process is the same except step 4 -
instead heat a dry fry pan over medium heat and place each circle of dough on
the fry pan. Press down on the dough surface with a frying spatula to flatten and
cook for 2-3 minutes each side, and serve warm!
