Ingredients For Vegan Purn Poli:

For Puran (Stuffing):

• 1 cup Tur dal (split pigeon peas)
• ¾ cup Crushed jaggery
• 2 tbsp Sugar
• ½ tsp Cardamom powder
• ½ tsp Nutmeg powder
• 3 cups Water

For Outer Covering (Poli Dough):

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• Water (for kneading)
• Salt (to taste)
• ⅓ cup Vegetable oil

Method:

For Puran (Stuffing):

• Wash the turdal and soak it in 2 cups of water for at least an hour. Drain the excess water.
• Pressure cook the soaked dal with 3 cups of water until tender (3-4 whistles). Allow the pressure to release naturally.
• In a pot, combine the cooked dal, jaggery, and sugar. Cook on low to medium heat until the mixture thickens and starts leaving the sides of the pot.
• Add cardamom powder and nutmeg powder. Mix well and cook until the mixture reaches a thick consistency. Remove from heat and set aside.

For Outer Covering (Poli Dough):

In a bowl, knead a soft, pliable dough using whole wheat flour, water, salt, and vegetable oil. Cover and let it rest for 2-3 hours.

For Puran Poli (Flatbread):

1. Heat a heavy griddle over medium-high heat.
2. Take a lemon-sized ball of dough and roll it into a circle using rice flour.
3. Place a lemon-sized ball of puran in the center of the rolled dough. Enclose the stuffing by gathering the edges of the dough.
4. Roll the stuffed dough into a thin flatbread.
5. Gently place the rolled puran poli on the heated griddle. Cook evenly on both sides until golden brown, adding oil as needed.
