don't forget to hit the bell so you'll be notified every time i upload new videos and please guys remember to like share and comment now let's jump right into it [Music] okay guys now let's take a quick look at the ingredients here i have some all-purpose flour i have some split peas i've been soaking overnight i have some oil and shortening mixed i have some butter i'll be using some baking powder some turmeric i have some jira better known as cumin i have some garlic here and hot pepper i have some salt complete seasoning i have some green onions and thyme let's get started in a medium sized pot i have added some water and now i'll add my salt and turmeric i will also add the split peas and allow it to boil until it is tender but not mushy so while our split piece is boiling we'll go ahead and get our dough ready we'll start by adding the butter to the flour and we'll work that in with our hands until it is well combined i am using salted butter so i will not be adding any salt to this dough but if you're using unsalted butter you can add a half teaspoon of salt to your dough and then we will add our baking powder mix that in and we will add some warm water to form a nice soft dough next we will turn the dough onto a floured surface and we will knead for about three to four minutes just until the dough comes together you don't want to knead it too much like it's bread but you just want it to become smooth once you're done kneading this is how your dough should be looking now we will place this back into the mixing bowl with a piece of damp paper towel over top and we will let it sit for about 30 minutes and after about 20 minutes of boiling our split peas should be done now what we are looking for is when we mash the peas it should pop but not melt away in your hands it should still have texture to it okay if you understand what i mean so now you will make sure that your piece is thoroughly cooled before you move on to this step now we'll add our jira complete seasoning our green onions and thyme and our peppers and garlic we will give it a good mix and then we will process the peas until it becomes like flour you want a flour like consistency you want everything here to be pretty smooth when you're done no grains or anything because usually the grains is what pops your doll puri when you're rolling it out so you want to make sure that this is very smooth when you're processing it i will show you guys the consistency you need to have when i'm done so this is kind of the consistency we're looking for but i will still continue to pulse this some more until it reaches my desired texture so here we have our split piece filling and this is the texture that i was looking for it is completely smooth and looks kind of like flour and what we'll do next is go ahead and separate our dough into equal parts this should give you about eight dollars so we'll separate dough into eight dough balls now i have my eight dough balls what i like to do is separate my split piece filling into little balls as well i find this way to be easier when i'm ready to fill the dough balls so i like to separate my split piece filling into the size of my dough balls like i try to make them the same size that way they're equally you know the same amount of dough to the same amount of dough balls and then i find it easier to just place it directly inside of the dough when i'm ready to fill them next we will begin to fill our dough with the split piece filling we will just spread it out in our hands like this or if you want you can use a rolling pin and roll it out and then we will just place the little filling balls inside like so and just close it up super easy and simple and then we will roll it up into our hands again so that it could be evenly distributed throughout the dough and we will just place it right there and continue the same process until they are all done and once your dough is all filled this is how it should be looking now let's move on to the good part now we'll go ahead and roll our doll puris out we will drench them in flour you want to put a lot of flour here just to prevent them from bursting and we will roll it out into a round shape try to get it as round as possible but if you can't that's okay no problem so once you got your dog pouring all rolled out now we will head over to the stove and we will start frying i love this part so here on medium to low heat i will go ahead and base my towel with that oil and shortening mixture that i had and then i will place my doll puri on top of the towel next we'll go ahead and base or oil or dal puri with that oil and shortening mixture and we will allow the dal puri to cook for a few seconds when you see like the bubbles start to form in the middle that's how we know that it is cooking and it is ready to be flipped we will flip it and repeat the same process of oiling the doll puri again on the other side and you guys you will see how beautifully this will puff and inflate and that's the part that i like i could watch that all day but remember to not keep this on the stove too long because then it'll become very hard and you don't want that so now we'll flip it one more time and then we will remove our doll puri it does not take a long time to cook once you see it inflates that means it is thoroughly cooked and we will remove it so now i'll place my doll puri on some parchment paper and this will keep it nice and moist and suck up some of that oil and you do not have to clap these guys we will now move on and complete the others and once you're all done this is how soft and moist this dog puri is guys it goes well with some chicken curry or whatever guys so this is my version of a super flavorful soft and delicious doll puri i do hope you guys enjoyed that video if you did give it a thumbs up share it leave a comment down below and don't forget to subscribe i will leave all the ingredients and measurements down
