Whether it’s morning hunger pangs or evening cravings, Aloo Puri always hits the spot. But if you’ve been avoiding it thinking it’s time-consuming, you’ll love this shortcut version. Made with mashed potatoes and a few pantry spices, this version needs no elaborate prep and delivers maximum taste with minimum effort.
🧾 Ingredients You'll Need- 2 cups wheat flour
- 2 medium boiled potatoes, mashed
- Salt to taste
- ½ tsp red chili powder
- ¼ tsp turmeric powder
- ½ tsp ajwain (carom seeds)
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander leaves
- 1 tbsp oil (for mixing in the dough)
- Oil for deep frying
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, combine wheat flour, mashed potatoes, salt, red chili powder, turmeric, ajwain, chopped coriander, and 1 tablespoon of oil. Mix everything well.
Gradually add water and knead it into a firm and smooth dough. Let it rest for 5–10 minutes while you heat the oil.
Step 2: Roll the Puris
Divide the dough into small portions and shape them into balls. Use a rolling pin to flatten them into small, round puris. Don't roll them too thin — they puff better when slightly thick.
Step 3: Fry the Puris
Heat oil in a deep pan. Once hot, gently slide the puris into the oil. Press them lightly with a slotted spoon to help them puff up. Fry until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
☕ Serving SuggestionsYou can serve these Aloo Puris hot with:
- Green chutney or imli chutney
- Fresh curd or raita
- Pickles or ketchup
- Or simply as is — no sides needed!
They're flavorful enough to enjoy solo, thanks to the spices and mashed potatoes in the dough.
