Puran Poli
A festive Maharashtrian sweet flatbread filled with a sweet, cardamom-scented paste made from split bengal gram and jaggery, roasted in ghee.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Boil split bengal gram until soft, drain water completely, and mash with jaggery in a pan over medium heat until dry and thick to form puran; mix in cardamom powder.
Knead all-purpose flour, turmeric powder, salt, oil, and water into a soft, elastic dough; rest submerged in oil for 1 hour.
Enclose a ball of puran filling inside an outer layer of dough, seal, and roll flat carefully into a thin disc.
Roast on a hot griddle, applying generous amounts of ghee on both sides until golden brown spots appear.
Serve warm with extra ghee.
