Bedmi Puri-Instant Dal Puris without Soaking and Grinding

Bedmi Puri/ Instant dal Puri without soaking and grinding Dal–Crispy dal ki puris can be made without soaking and grinding dal! This is an old family recipe and was made by my eldest taiji. Since then I make it on special occasions like Diwali ,Holi or when I have some friends over and I just want a simple meal that’s also special-puri aloo always fits the bill.

The Kalonji/nigella seeds mixed with hing/asafoetida provide the flavor of peethi that we look for in dal ki puri without the effort involved in soaking and grinding and then browning the dal.

The spices make the Bedmi pooris/Instant Dal puris without soaking and grinding so tasty that honestly you dont need anything else as an accompaniment, they taste great as is. The sooji and urad dal make the pooris crisp and they stay crisp for a long time.

Make them for the next family gathering and enjoy the compliments. Here is the link to my Diwali Party, with all the recipes and goodies!

Important to keep dough for 3-5 hours to let sooji and urad dal develop.
The Sooji makes the puris crisp.
Its important to knead with HOT water.
If using an electric stove, its best to set temperature at 490, as it requires hot oil to make them crisp.

Flip and start pressing on puri, specially where you see it puffing. Pressing on puri, forces air in and makes it puff up.
