I have made Puranpoli at many occasions... No matter how promising my personal recipe is... I found this method to be more quick and easy... and also the variation by adding coconut made it even more interesting...

Chana dal puranpoli kafi baar banayee aur khayee hai. Lekin kobra dalke pehli baar banaya. Kobra se taste aur bhi nikhar gaya. Par yeh garam-garam khaye tho hi mazza hai.
