Puri Bhaji Recipe
Puri is a common breakfast dish available in all South Indian restaurants. Puri dough is made with whole wheat flour, semolina, salt and then deep fried till puffed and slightly crisp.
To go with the poori, usually the best combo is Potato Masala, which is made with smashed potatoes along with onions and spices. Here, I am sharing Potato Masala curry recipe too.
