Luchi (Puri)



Ingredients:
All purpose flour – 1 cup
Salt – to taste
Warm water – about 100 ml
Oil – 1 teaspoon + oil for deep frying

Method:
Mix flour and salt.
Then add 1 teaspoon oil and mix well.
Make firm dough by adding about 100 ml warm water slowly to it. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes.
Divide it into 8 small lime size balls.
Roll the dough balls into about 4 inch diameter uniform circle (it should not be thin somewhere and thick elsewhere).
Deep-fry it (fry both sides turning the luchi upside down when one side is golden) one at a time in vegetable oil (the oil should be very hot; otherwise luchis will not be good). Luchis should puff up.
Remove the excess oil using a paper towel and serve hot with your favorite curry.
