1. Puri

Puri or poori, a traditional Indian fried unleavened bread, is an important part of Indian cuisine. People usually include this dish in their special meals during festivities. While making puri, remember to combine the whole wheat flour with oil and salt and knead it into a stiff dough. It shouldn't be as soft as you use for making rotis. Recipe here.
