Ingredients

For the dough
2 cups whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta)
1 tbsp fresh curds (dahi)
1/2 tsp levelled, baking powder
1 tsp ghee
1/2 tsp salt

For the stuffing
1 1/2 cups boiled green peas
3 to 5 green chillies, finely chopped
1 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp chaat masala
1 tsp whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta)
1 tsp ghee
salt to taste

Other ingredients
ghee or oil for deep frying

Method

For the dough

Combine the wheat flour, curds, baking powder, ghee and salt and make a soft dough by adding some warm water.
Knead the dough for at least 6 to 7 minutes till it is smooth and elastic.
Keep the dough under a wet cloth.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Keep aside.

For the stuffing

Grind the green peas and green chillies to a paste in a blender, without using any water.
Heat the ghee, add the cumin seeds and fry until they crackle.
Add the green pea mixture, lemon juice, chaat masala and salt and cook for a few minutes. Sprinkle the flour and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture becomes dry.

How to proceed

Roll out each dough portion into a small round. Put a teaspoon of the stuffing in the centre and close it.
Roll out thinly with the help of a little flour. Repeat with the remaining dough portions and stuffing.
Deep fry in ghee over a medium flame so that the puris cook from the insides also.
Serve hot.
