Step 1: Preparing the Dough
Related Articles

- In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil, cumin seeds, ajwain, salt, finely chopped spring onion greens, and coriander leaves.
- Mix these ingredients together thoroughly. Begin adding water little by little, kneading as you go, until the mixture forms a stiff, pliable dough for puris.
- Once the dough has come together, add a few drops of oil and smooth it out by kneading for a minute. Cover the dough and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
Step 2: Shaping the Puris
- After resting, divide the dough into lemon-sized portions.
- Dust each portion with a little flour, and roll each ball into a round puri of about 3 inches in diameter. Aim for medium thickness to ensure even frying.
Step 3: Frying the Puris
- Heat oil in a deep kadai (or deep frying pan) over medium-high heat until it’s hot but not smoking.
- Carefully slide one rolled puri into the hot oil. Using a slotted spoon, gently press down on the puri as it cooks to encourage slight puffing.
- Due to the presence of spring onions, cumin, and ajwain in the dough, the puris will puff just slightly—similar to a phulka but with more texture.
- Fry until the puri is golden and crisp, flipping it once to cook both sides evenly.
- Remove the puri from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
Step 4: Serving Suggestions
Serve these flavorful Hare Pyaaz Ki Puris hot, accompanied by classic Indian side dishes such as:
