Ingredients

4 cups flour, all-purpose
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 pinch salt
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups water lukewarm
2 1/2 pounds chicken skinned, boned and cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
1 teaspoon garlic chopped
1 each scallions, spring or green onions finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon scotch bonnet chile peppers finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon jira ground
1/2 tablespoon black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil for each poori
1 x scallions, spring or green onions to garnish

Directions

To prepare the pooris, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.

Pour the oil into the water, then add this mixture to the flour mixture to form a dough.

Mix well.

Knead for about 5 minutes until dough is very smooth.

Divide into 6 balls of dough.

Set aside for about 2 hours, covered with a damp cloth.

Using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a thin flattened circle, a poori, about 9 inches in diameter.

Set aside, covered.

To prepare the filling, combine the chicken and all the other ingredi-ents except the oil and the garnish.

Mix well and marinate for 2 hours or longer.

When done marinating, add 2 tablespoons oil to a saucepan and heat to medium.

Add the chicken mixture and cook, stirring con- stantly for about 5 minutes.

Add the water then cook on low for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is tender.

Keep warm.

Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a skillet or grill.

Place the rolled pooris on the skillet.

Fry each side for about 2 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Brush each side with margarine or oil.

Wrap in clean towel to keep warm until ready to serve.

When ready to serve, fold about 2 tablespoons of chicken mixture into each round and serve.

Garnish with scallions and Scotch Bonnet pepper.
