Method

  • In a large bowl, add flour, MTR Haldi/Turmeric Powder, salt and mix well.
  • Pour oil and blend it with the flour.
  • Add water little by little and knead it into smooth dough.
  • Grease a bowl with oil, transfer the dough and cover it with a lid or cling film for at least an hour.

For the dal stuffing:

  • Dry roast chana dal till fragrant.
  • Wash and soak in water (about one inch above the dal) for an hour.
  • Pressure-cook the dal on medium flame for up to 3 whistles.
  • Remove excess water, mash with a masher or ladle.
  • Heat a pan with a teaspoon of ghee. Add dal and powdered jaggery.
  • Cook on low flame until the jaggery melts and mixes well with dal and the excess moisture is absorbed.
  • Add cardamom powder and switch off.
  • When the mixture cools, shape the entire batch into lemon-sized balls.
  • Take a small portion of the dough and make a peda (ball) with the help of your palms.
  • Keep it on a butter paper, place a cling film or a polythene cover on top and roll it out with a rolling pin to make a small circle.
  • Now place a lemon-sized filling in the centre of the circle and seal the edges with the dough.
  • Pinch the dough on the top to seal the filling completely.
  • Now press gently with your palm and place it on the butter paper.
  • Place a cling film and start rolling to make a thin chapatti (circle).
  • Spread some ghee or oil on a heated tawa (gridle) and place the poli on it.
  • Let it brown a little on one side. Turn and spread ghee/oil on the front side as well as around the corners of the poli.
  • After repeating it on both sides, remove from the pan.
  • Serve paruppu poli while it is hot, for a mouth-watering experience.
