hmmmm this is totally new to me,I had no clue we could also fry poori's with the daal paste on one side,I am so excited and want to try this,as I can understand the daal side will have a crunch.This is fantastic :)!!!

Shobha said...

Thanks Aipi, Indianspicemagic

@Mrs.K...yes It is delicious..my Rajasthani friend had shown me how to prepare.I was also wondering how you could deep-fry the dal side. But amazingly the dal never scattered in the oil.Do try it out.
