Verki Puri (Airfried)

Verki Puri

Verki Puri is a crispy, flaky, savoury snacks which are perfect to be served for tea-time. I've used whole wheat flour and fried these in Airfrier. These can be deep fried in medium hot oil.

Ingredients:

Whole wheat flour - 200 gms + 4 tablespoons

Semolina / Sooji - 2 tablespoons

Refined oil - 3 tablespoons

Onion seeds / Kalonji - 1 tsp

Crushed pepper - 1 tsp

Cumin / Jeera - 1 tsp

Salt to taste

Method:

# Mix whole wheat flour, semolina, crushed pepper, cumin, onion seeds, salt.

# Heat 2 tablespoons of oil.

# Pour hot oil in flour mixture. Leave it for few minutes.

# Mix well until you get a bread crumbs consistency.

# Sprinkle water and knead a dough. Not too stiff nor too soft.

# Apply 1tsp of oil and cover the dough for 15-20 minutes.

# After 15 minutes knead for 1 more minute. Make small marble size balls. Roll to a thin flat bread / chapati.

# Brush some oil and sprinkle some wheat flour and place the 2nd chappati. Repeat this... I've used 7 chapatis. Give a log shape. Pinch the edges well.

# Cut the log with 1inch gap.

# Press and roll slightly. As shown in the picture.

# Preheat Airfrier @ 180'c for 5 minutes.

# Place the Verki Puri's in Airfrier...3-4 pieces at a time... Do not overload them.

# Airfry @ 180'c for 15 minutes. Inbetween brush some oil and flip verki puris.

# Once verki puris are fried allow them to cool.

Store in an airtight container.
