Today’s post has some photographs of food I cooked to post on my blog:

The first one is photos of flat fried bread we call pooris. I took some pictures of them before frying.

The recipe for this is:

cream of wheat–3/4 cup
wheat flour- 1 cup
yoghurt-8 tbsp.
clarified butter (or salt free butter) 6 tbsp.
salt- 1tsp.
Method:
Mix all these ingredients to make a dough.
Cover and leave it for one hour.
Roll out the dough and cut into small round pooris.( you can also divide the dough into small balls and use the rolling pin to make individual pooris.
Deep fry until golden brown.
the above are the fried pooris
You can serve pooris with mixed spicy vegetables

You can also serve poori with halwa, which is sweet.

water- 3/4 cup.
Method:
toast the cream of wheat, in a saucepan over the heat on the stove at medium heat, let it turn light brown, add butter, stir when it mixes with the cream of wheat, add water slowly when it doesn’t look grainy, it means the cream of wheat is cooked and it’s time to add sugar. Stir thoroughly,until the sugar dissolves with the cream of wheat. Halwa is ready to serve in a serving bowl, garnish with sliced pistachios and almonds.
