Methi Puri Recipe | Dried Methi(Kasoori Methi) Poori Recipe

Methi Poori Recipe with step by step photos. Methi Poori is a deep fried whole wheat flat bread with Dried Methi leaves. My kids love pooris a lot but I cook it very rarely. And now the elder one started giving menu each day. I am cooking as per his choice now-a-days. Last week, he wanted Poori & Channa Masala for breakfast, that means Chole Batura. It was a busy weekday morning and I don't have enough time to make Batura that time, instead of Batura I prepared this quick Methi Poori. As this methi poori, doesn't require resting time and can be prepared in a jiffy.
So One side set Easy Channa Masala in Pressure Cooker and the other side fried Methi Poori. My kids happily had their breakfast :) I added little Rava/Sooji/Semolina to the dough, that gives crispy and puffy poori, and also the pooris didn't drink oil. As you could see in the pictures, poori were not oily. Outer crispy puffed layer and inner layer was soft. Now off to the recipe.

Lachha Paratha / Whole Wheat Lachha Paratha / Mulit Layered Paratha - Its Easy & Vegan too!!

Lachha Paratha is a Mulit layered Indian Flat bread/Paratha of Punjabi Cuisine that is traditionally prepared in Tandoor(a cylindrical clay or metal oven) and using ghee. But it can also be prepared using oil in tawa/griddle like chapathi or plain paratha. I love south Indian Paratto, a similar multi layered flat bread that is made with Maida/All purpose Flour. And recently learned the trick of making perfect Parotta and am planning to make a post of it soon here.
Now coming to the Lachha Paratha, mostly this lachha paratha is made using ghee and is not advisable for regular diet meal but i wanted to make it less calorie and also a complete Vegan Recipe, so i used whole wheat flour and oil to make this paratha. Even oil gives nice flaky and flavorful paratha. Hope the step by step pictures helps anyone to make this Paratha very easy and now lets move on to the recipe...

Wheat Flour Laddu / Atta Laddu - Easy & Quick Diwali Sweet Recipe

Today's recipe is another simple and easy to make Sweet that you can try this for Diwali, Wheat Flour Laddus / Atta Ladoo. A healthy snack for growing kids. I bookmarked this Atta Ladoo in Raks Kitchen and tried it this week and the laddus tasted so so good and it just melt in mouth like Soan papdi. I felt so, the sweetness and flour texture was similar to the taste of soan papdi. I slightly tweaked the recipe by mixing the ground pistachios with Atta. And also here i used only 1/4 cup ghee and 1/4 cup oil. To me the flavor of ghee and taste of Atta ladoo was fine but you can use which ever is fine to you. One more Easy Diwali Sweet and its a must try, thank You Raji for this wonderful recipe and sure a keeper. Now off to the recipe..
