Gur Poli
Posted by Trupti in Indian Breads, Sweet
- 2 cup grated Gur (Jaggery)
- 1/4 cup dried shredded Coconut
- 1/4 cup ground Peanuts
- 1/2 cup ground Sesame Seeds
- 1 tbs Poppy Seeds
- 1/2 cup Besan
- 1 tsp Cardamom Powder
- Salt to taste
- Oil as needed
For Cover:
- 3 cup Wheat Flour
- Salt to taste
- Oil as needed
Procedure:
- Fry shredded coconut & poppy seeds seperately till it get light brown. Let it cool. Grind both and keep aside.
- Fry besan in small amount of oil till it turns light brown.
- Take pan away from gas then add jaggery, coconut, poppy seed powder, cardamom powder, sesame seeds. Add small amount of salt. Mix it well.
- If this mixture is too dry, add small amount of oil and mix well. Keep aside.
- Now knead a dough of wheat flour with slight touch of oil and keep aside for few minutes.
- To start with poli knead a dough more smoother than normal (previous one) using water.
- Now make even size small balls of the dough. Then roll each of them into a round shape of just 2 inch in diameter.
- Also roll the mixture of sesame, coconut , jaggery etc. into a round shape (smaller than dough roll ). Make sure this mixture is smooth enough to roll and fill in rolled dough.
- Close it from all sides forming a ball. Then start roling the ball and prepare a normal size poli of that.
- Heat the Tawa on medium gas and put this poli on it. Roast it like a normal poli/chapati.
- Thus when both sides are cooked remove it and keep each poli on a seperate paper(not on the dish ). Allow it to cool down so that it takes it's tough texture (like papad).
- Then serve with ghee.
