Beetroot Poori

 ....So another beetroot recipe in a row!....

I am planning to making pooris of different colors,... filling with different vegetables such, carrot, spinach  leaves, tomato, beetroot, mint leaves, coriander leaves etc. For me, or say  my family, color in poori is something which we love to have too...

This time I am presenting the red color beetroot puree. Look at the picture. All the pooris have a very nice red hue from red, soft beetroot puree... And let see which color to have next...:-)

Ingredients:

1 medium size beetroot

2 cup of atta (white floor) for 3 persons

1.5 tsp of ajwain seeds

Salt and oil as per your requirement 

Method:

1. Have you peeled the beetroot? Now chop it into small pieces.

2. Take water in your pressure cooker and boil the beet pieces till you listen to 2 whistles.

3. Remove the pressure cooker from the oven and let the beetroot cool down.

4. Once they get cool, grind them into smooth puree. Take it in a bowl and set aside.

5. Take white flour (atta), salt and ajwain seeds in bowl. Mix them well. Now add beetroot puree and again mix well.

6. Now knead the dough to make it pliable and make small balls from the dough.

7. Now start rolling those balls. It is always fun to see how poori is puffed out. And I’m sure, you would love to see it. So roll all the balls with little thickness.If you make it thin, your poori would not be puffed out.

8. Heat oil in a frying pan. Now deep-fry them. Fry them one by one and remove from the oil. Serve the beetroot poori with curd or any spicy curry.
