Recipe - Puris

1 cup Unbleached AllPurpose Flour
1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
2/3 cup Water
1 tablespoon Melted Butter Or Ghee
2 teaspoon Vegetable Oil
Ghee Or Oil For Deep Frying

Yield: 16 Puris Cooking Time: 40 Minutes

Place the flours in a bowl, add enough of the water to make a soft pliable
dough. Add the melted butter, knead until smooth. Cover the bowl with a
damp cloth, leave in a warm place for one hour. Divide into 16 pieces and,
using a little oil on the hands, shape into balls. Grease the rolling pin
and board with oil, roll each ball into a thin pancake. Heat the ghee until
smoking hot, place a puri in the frying pan. Turn immediately and press
with a fish slice (slotted spatula or pancake turner) until the puri puffs
up. Cook until golden. Drain on absorbent paper, serve as soon as
possible.
