- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon garam masala

Instructions:

Lunchbox- Poori potato masala, papaya

Ingredients:
- 2 cups of whole wheat flour
- Salt to taste
- Water (for kneading)
- Oil (for deep frying)

Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and a pinch of salt.
2. Gradually add water and knead the mixture to form a smooth and firm dough. The dough should not be too soft or too hard.
3. Once the dough is ready, cover it with a damp cloth and let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.
4. Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
5. While the oil is heating, divide the dough into small equal-sized balls, roughly the size of a lemon.
6. Take one dough ball, flatten it slightly with your hands, and then roll it out into a small circular disc using a rolling pin. The disc should be about 4-5 inches in diameter.
7. Carefully slide the rolled-out poori into the hot oil. Gently press the poori using a slotted spoon to help it puff up. It should puff up and turn golden brown within a few seconds.
8. Flip the poori and fry the other side until it's also golden brown.
9. Once the poori is cooked, use the slotted spoon to remove it from the oil and drain any excess oil by placing it on a plate lined with paper towels.
10. Repeat the process with the remaining dough balls.

Serve the freshly fried pooris hot with your favorite side dishes, such as potato masala, chana masala, or any curry of your choice. Enjoy your homemade pooris!
