Poori is a very famous Indian dish.It can be made with the dough made using Wheat flour/Maida and deep fried in oil.Potato masala is the perfect combination of Poori. I love Pooris a lot.During my pregnancy the only food, I was craving for was Poori with sambar and chutney.I want it daily for my breakfast.My sister used to make it for me daily.
