Directions
Knead together mashed eggs, potatoes, coriander, chili and 1 teaspoon salt and divide into 8 portions.
Sieve flour and 1 teaspoon salt.
Rub into 2 tbsp ghee or oil.
Mix well for 10 minutes.
Slowly add warm water.
Knead to a soft dough. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and shape into balls.
Roll each ball out a little.
Place one portion of egg mixture in centre of each ball.
Fold it over and pinch the ends.
Now roll out each into a round puri 4" (10 cm) diameter.
Do not make it too thin or the stuffing will come out.
Heat oil in a frying pan, deep fry one at a time until the colour turns golden.
Serve hot with plain yogurt.
