Jaipur Pink Poori ! Initially, I thought of the title as Pink Poori, later Pink was associated with the Pink City of Jaipur and hence the name. This recipe along with that of the Neer Dosai was passed on to me during my visit to my brother's house in Mumbai.
Surprised was I to look at the bright and beautiful Pooris of three different colours at the dining table for dinner.My sister law's policy is that the maid should be left alone in the kitchen to work with ease without any disturbance of us engaging in a conversation with her.A good gesture to be lauded! So unaware of the menu, seeing the colourful Pooris for the first time was really awesome.
The Pinkish red Pooris are prepared by adding Beetroot, the green ones by adding Spinach or Methi and the yellow ones by adding Turmeric Powder.
Thirattu Pal and Pink Pooris were a part of the menu on the B'day celebrations of my son in law, last week.
To prepare 8 Pooris :
Wheat Flour 1 cup.
Peeled and cubed Beetroot 1/4 cup
Sooji ( optional ) 1 tbsp.
Salt, Oil
Method :
1.Pressure cook the Beetroot with little water in a small pressure cooker for 3 whistles. Cool and grind finely in a mixer, add with the flour,salt, Sooji, add more water if required to make a dough as for the normal Pooris.
2. Press into Pooris and deep fry in the oil.
